Citrus Heights allows indoor personal cannabis cultivation of up to 6 plants per residence by adults 21+ as required by California Proposition 64. Outdoor cultivation is prohibited. Plants must be within a locked, enclosed, and secure residence or accessory structure not visible from public places.
Proposition 64 (2016, Health & Safety Code Β§11362.2) allows adults 21 and older to cultivate up to 6 cannabis plants per private residence for personal use. The law expressly permits cities to impose 'reasonable regulations' on personal cultivation but prohibits outright bans on indoor cultivation. Citrus Heights has implemented the Prop 64 minimum framework: indoor cultivation only (no outdoor), plants secured in a locked space, cultivation area not visible from public right-of-way, must have adequate ventilation, no use of volatile solvents for extraction, and cultivation may not occur in rental properties where the lease prohibits it. Cultivation must comply with building and electrical codes, and landlords may ban cannabis in leases. Smoking cannabis is prohibited anywhere tobacco smoking is prohibited (H&SC Β§11362.3).
Outdoor cultivation or cultivation exceeding 6 plants can result in infractions ($100-$500), code enforcement abatement, and potential misdemeanor charges for larger quantities.
