797.18 TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP.

   (a)   Transfer of ownership. For a transfer of ownership, a license holder shall apply to the local licensing authority on forms provided by the state licensing authority. In determining whether to permit a transfer of ownership, the local licensing authority shall consider only the requirements of this Chapter, the Ohio Medical Marijuana Control Program Code, and regulations promulgated by the Ohio Department of Commerce in conformance therewith. The local licensing authority may hold a hearing on the application for a transfer of ownership; provided the local licensing authority shall not hold a hearing pursuant to this section until the local licensing authority has posted a notice of hearing on the licensed medical marijuana cultivator, processor or dispensary premises for a period of at least ten (10) days and provided notice of the hearing to the applicant at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing.

   (b)   Change of location. Licensees from other jurisdictions may not transfer their licenses to Macedonia. Licensees with a permanent cultivation, processing or dispensary site in the City may transfer their license to another location within the City so long as the applicant and the new location conform to the requirements of this Chapter.
