PlanningBoard | 2020-06-22 | 3 | Staff Member Sablan pointed to the Alameda Municipal code and since Jackson Park does not have a licensed daycare it would not qualify as sensitive use and therefore meets the conditions. Board Member Rothenberg pressed the point that no one can control what happens but as a matter of diligence wanted to know what the applicant will do to ensure their products are not a danger to the users of Jackson Park. Aaron Kraw, the applicant, talked about the plans they have in place in different cities and all the security protocols they use. Miguel Rodriguez, the applicant, talked more about their security, how they check IDs and they use child safety packaging. Also, any purchased product will be linked to an account so they would be able to find out if anyone had been leaving the product in places or trying to resell it. Board Member Rothenberg was not entirely satisfied with these answers. Director Thomas talked about all the consideration and planning the City Council had put into cannabis. The applicant's use permit can be revoked and the operator's permit has a one-year expiration. If there are any problems like the ones Board Member Rothenberg had brought up the city had set up a regulatory system so these concerns could be addressed. Board Member Rothenberg asked Director Thomas if the staff report supported that this was compatible land use. Director Thomas said yes, they see this as any other type of retail space. Kenneth Turgen, the architect for the applicant, spoke about the benefits to the city this location and being on Park Street offered. Board Member Teague asked if there would be a door for deliveries that was a nonpublic access door. Mr. Turgen nodded yes. Board Member Teague asked if all off-site deliveries would be coming in and out of that door. Mr. Turgen said yes, the main entrance would be for clients only. They would be following the correct protocols that no deliveries would be going through the main entrance. Board Member Teague asked about the labeling of the public restrooms "men" and "women" and if it would be possible to label them just "restrooms".
