HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — A couple of County cities weigh whether to adopt an ordinance to tax cannabis businesses if – or when – they come into their towns.
Laguna Woods will ask voters in November to set the framework for taxing cannabis businesses if the city allows it in the future.
Measure T, the Cannabis Business Tax ordinance, would tax cannabis businesses 4% to 10% of gross receipts or $5 to $35 per square foot for retail operations; and 1% to 10% of gross receipts or $1 to $35 per square foot for other types of businesses, such as delivery, manufacturing, etc.
Once passed, the city council would ultimately select the specific tax rate.
Laguna Woods currently prohibits many cannabis businesses.
