§ 111.05 ELIMINATION OF EQUIVALENT LICENSE REQUIREMENT.
   Unless otherwise required by law of the State of Michigan and/or the United States of America, there shall be no requirement for any person and/or entity to first obtain a medical marihuana license/permit from Spaulding Township prior to obtaining a recreational marihuana/adult-use license/permit from Spaulding Township. An applicant may obtain from Spaulding Township a marihuana grower license (of any class), a marihuana processor license, a marihuana retailer license, and/or a marihuana secure transporter license pursuant to the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act ("MRTMA") without first obtaining any license/permit from Spaulding Township pursuant to the Medical Marijuana Facilities Licensing Act ("MMFLA"). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein should be interpreted as a guarantee or an assurance that an applicant will successfully obtain any local township license/permit issued under the MRTMA. Pursuant to applicable state and township law and regulation, any applicant desiring to obtain a license/permit from the township pursuant to the MRTMA must meet and comply with all applicable state and local law, requirements, and regulations and must be approved by the Township Planning Commission and Township Board where required.
