2 rules for unincorporated Richmond County, New York.
Verified from official government sources
Under the NY Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA, 2021), adults 21+ in Staten Island may grow up to 3 mature and 3 immature cannabis plants per person, with a maximum of 6 mature and 6 immature per household, for personal use. Home cultivation is legal as of the effective date of the retail provisions.
Adult-use cannabis dispensaries on Staten Island are licensed by the NY Office of Cannabis Management and must comply with state proximity rules: minimum 500 feet from schools and 200 feet from houses of worship. NYC did not opt out of retail dispensaries, so Staten Island permits licensed dispensaries in appropriate commercial and manufacturing zones.
