Subject: RE: Certificate of Use for 172 W Flagler St
Good afternoon,
The Office of the City Attorney has advised that a Certificate of Use ("CU") cannot be issued for such a facility as it would
be in violation of federal law, particularly the Controlled Substances Act of 1971. While made legal for medical purposes
by state law, marijuana remains classified as a Schedule I drug by the Drug Enforcement Administration. While legal
under state law, it remains illegal under federal law, thus precluding the issuance of a CU for that proposed use.
Thank you,
City of Miami
Office of Zoning
