Summary
San Diego’s cracking down on illegal cannabis delivery services that are flooding the market, undercutting legal businesses, avoiding taxes, and endangering public safety. With nearly 40% of cannabis sales now coming from unlicensed operators—none of whom pay taxes or follow safety rules—the city is introducing a new licensing program with steep fines up to $500,000 and daily penalties of $20,000. Legal businesses harmed by this unfair competition can sue and share in collected penalties. City officials and labor reps see this as a win for jobs, revenue, and community safety, though final council approval still pending.
