MI HB5766

Requires the marijuana regulatory agency to process state license applications within 90 days of receiving a complete application and fee, and mandates forwarding applications to relevant municipalities for review.

Establishes eight types of state marijuana licenses: retailer, safety compliance facility, secure transporter, processor, microbusiness, and three classes of growers (A, B, C) based on plant cultivation limits of 100, 500, and 2,000 plants respectively.

Prohibits marihuana establishments from locating within 1,000 feet of pre-existing public or private K-12 schools unless both the municipality adopts an ordinance reducing the distance requirement AND the school's governing body approves the location.

Restricts ownership interests to prevent conflicts of interest, including prohibiting persons from holding interests in both safety compliance/secure transporter operations and cultivation/retail operations, and limiting ownership in multiple growers (5 maximum) or microbusinesses (1 maximum) unless future rules permit otherwise.

Limits initial applicants for 24 months to Michigan residents (Class A growers and microbusinesses) and existing medical marihuana license holders (other license types), with any applicant eligible for safety compliance facilities; municipalities with establishment caps must use competitive selection processes to choose among qualified applicants.
