This bill amends RSA 126-X:7 to allow operators of alternative treatment centers to establish an additional cultivation location, specifically a greenhouse. The new legal language inserted into the current law states that the department may authorize each operator to operate this additional cultivation site, which must comply with rules set by the department and local zoning laws. Furthermore, the department is required to solicit input from qualifying patients, designated caregivers, and local residents regarding the establishment of the additional cultivation location.

The bill does not include any deletions from the current law but introduces a new paragraph (XI) that outlines the conditions and requirements for the additional cultivation locations. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, allowing for a structured approach to expanding cultivation capabilities for alternative treatment centers while ensuring community involvement and compliance with local regulations.
