The facility must comply with all licensing and operating procedures required under <br />Minnesota Statutes Chapter 342. <br />2. The Conditional Use Permit may be issued prior to the applicant having received all <br />necessary state permits and licenses, but the applicant shall submit proof of <br />obtaining all state permits prior to beginning cultivation operations. <br />3.
