Matt Haney (D-San Francisco)<\/a>, which opened the door to Amsterdam-style cannabis caf\u00e9s in California.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is exactly what we envisioned when I authored the bill to make it possible for cities to legalize cannabis caf\u00e9s, and it&#8217;s exciting to see San Francisco lead the way in making that vision a reality,&#8221; Haney said.<\/p>\n<p>Under the ordinance, cannabis retailers would be allowed to prepare and serve food and non-alcoholic beverages for consumption alongside cannabis at their establishments. The ordinance also creates a new cannabis caf\u00e9 permit, allowing for purpose-built spaces where cannabis consumption may be offered alongside food, beverages and entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>Cannabis sales in caf\u00e9s would be limited to sales for on-site consumption only. No alcohol or tobacco would be allowed, officials said. <\/p>\n<p>Caf\u00e9s would also have to meet the same health code and California Retail Food Code standards as other food establishments, follow ventilation and signage rules and verify customers&#8217; ages at the door.<\/p>\n<p>If the measure takes effect, only existing licensed cannabis retailers and their equity partners would be allowed to apply for cannabis caf\u00e9 permits during the first year.<\/p>\n<p>According to the city&#8217;s Office of Cannabis, 79 cannabis retailer permits have been issued, of which 66 were active as of earlier this year.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation  \">\n        <\/aside>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n      <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<section class=\"content__tags\">\n<p class=\"content__tags__label\">In:<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.cbsnews.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved an ordinance that would allow for Amsterdam-style cannabis caf\u00e9s serving food, drinks and offering live entertainment.
