Embark cannabis retailer transfer — 4975 West Lane
Stockton
Description
Embark asked to move its approved cannabis storefront from 1137 South Stockton Street (blocked by floodplain seawall costs) to a vacant 3,744-square-foot building on West Lane, plus add delivery-only service. Approved 4-2 with conditions and a CEQA exemption.
Impact summary
Fills a long-vacant storefront with a licensed, secure cannabis retailer offering union jobs, 24/7 camera surveillance, and a community investment fund — but neighbors worry about parking conflicts with a banquet hall and a firearms store next door.
