MMFLA & MRTMA Municipal Licensing

Securing Local Cannabis Business Approvals Across Michigan

In addition to securing state-level licensing, we also assist clients in obtaining, transferring, and selling municipal cannabis business licenses. Our firm has successfully procured cannabis licenses in numerous municipalities across Michigan and beyond.

Every municipality has its own licensing process and approval criteria, which may involve:
✔ Merit-Based Applications – Competitive applications requiring detailed business plans and community benefits proposals
✔ Time-Sensitive Licensing Windows – Ensuring all application materials are submitted before deadlines
✔ Lottery-Based Selection – Implementing strategies to improve your chances of selection in municipalities that use lotteries

Our municipal licensing team is recognized as one of Michigan’s leading cannabis law teams. Whether you’re facing zoning restrictions, local hearings, or site plan reviews, we provide comprehensive support to secure your municipal license.

MMFLA & MRTMA Facility Licensing

Successfully Navigating the Final Approval Process

Once you have secured state prequalification and municipal approval, the final step is obtaining your MMFLA or MRTMA facility license, also referred to as the "Part 2" application.

Unlike other cannabis business law firms that use overly complex application plans filled with unnecessary commitments, our streamlined Part 2 licensing strategy maximizes your operational flexibility while meeting all state requirements.

✔ Custom-Tailored Compliance Plans – Covering staffing, security, inventory tracking, recordkeeping, and marketing
✔ Proven Licensing Templates – Our business plans, social equity plans, and operational procedures have been approved by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA) time and time again
✔ Efficient & Cost-Effective Process – Our proprietary system ensures fast approvals without unnecessary expenses

With our in-depth experience, we help clients avoid licensing delays and move from approval to full operational status as quickly as possible.
