Chief investigator David Staley presented seven TOIs and staff recommendations. The board acted on transactions involving Premium Produce LLC, DEP Nevada Inc. (sale to Fox Farms LLC), ETW Management Group (sale to Synergy Investments LLC), TGIG LLC (purchase of New Leaf VLV Retail Dispensary LLC), Altmore Debt 1 LLC (taking a cultivation license to satisfy a debt), Taproot Holdings/M3 Wellness (internal restructuring and a rural dispensary transfer) and Vireo Growth Inc.'s proposed acquisition of DeepRoots Holdings Inc.

Key board actions and staff notes:

- Premium Produce LLC: Staff reported no areas of concern. The board approved an internal transfer increasing Priscilla Vilchius’s membership and limited the requested waiver of NCCR 5.11 (for transfers under 5%) to expire at the next TOI agenda.

- DEP Nevada Inc. / Fox Farms LLC: Staff found no areas of concern and recommended limiting the NCCR 5.11 waiver to the next TOI agenda. The board approved the transfer enabling Fox Farms owner Ivan Fox to take over operations.

- ETW Management Group / Synergy Investments LLC: Staff reported no areas of concern but identified two areas of interest — unapproved internal reorganizations by the sole member for tax reasons and buyer Gilbert Avila III’s need to source additional financing to make the acquired cultivation license operational. The board approved the transfer.

- TGIG LLC / Juicy Holdings Inc.: Staff found no areas of concern but identified an administrative lapse where an incomplete TOI filing for a replacement owner was not processed; staff clarified the issue and the board approved the purchase and internal restructuring and limited the waiver time frame.

- Altmore Debt 1 LLC / Lighthouse Strategies: Altmore sought to extinguish Lighthouse’s debt by taking ownership of cultivation license C101 after a default. Staff reported no areas of concern. The board approved the transfer and limited the waiver of NCCR 5.11 to the next TOI agenda.

- Taproot Holdings / M3 Wellness (Mom’s Meds): The board approved a transfer enabling M3 Wellness (owned by Laura Langmeier) to take a dispensary license (RD673) and go vertical with existing cultivation operations in Mineral County; staff reported no areas of concern and the board limited the waiver to the next agenda.

- Vireo Growth Inc. / DeepRoots Holdings Inc.: Staff flagged an area of interest: one of Vireo’s existing Nevada licenses (MJ Distributing C201 LLC) owed approximately $469,000 to the Nevada Department of Taxation; the Nevada Tax Commission approved a payment plan on May 7, 2025, and the company is currently in good standing with the Department of Taxation. The board approved the merger and restructuring that will make DeepRoots a wholly owned subsidiary of Vireo; existing DeepRoots executives will continue to manage operations post-acquisition.

Why it matters: The approvals move several Nevada cannabis businesses through ownership changes that affect local operations, employment and brand continuity. Staff identified financing questions and administrative issues that the board limited via temporary waivers and by asking staff to monitor and report back.

Details and next steps: For many TOIs the board limited requested waivers of NCCR 5.11 pursuant to 5.112 (for transfers under 5%) to expire at each party’s next TOI agenda date. The board accepted staff reporting and allowed approved transfers to proceed to any remaining steps, including final TOI processing and required inspections where applicable.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Cannabis Compliance Board Meeting May 15th 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Cannabis Compliance Board approved seven transfer-of-interest requests May 15 covering internal ownership changes, acquisitions and a merger, but limited short-term waivers and flagged financing, internal-reorganization and tax items for follow-up.","taxTitle","Cannabis Compliance Board (CCB), Other State Agencies, Organizations, Executive, Nevada","taxId",27616,"location","Nevada","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6239441,"CCB allows Sunday Co. to run Indoor Garden Farms under 12-month check-in",188,3278000,3466000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed&start=3278&end=3466","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed/thumbnail_3278000.jpg","/articles/6239441/Nevada/CCB-allows-Sunday-Co-to-run-Indoor-Garden-Farms-under-12-month-check-in","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239441-f6a5bb2e3fdd4bed3057983b85734e6d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770901149&Signature=F8IzHmt8dGBfUQGMAoOUfreE6KOkXFLcsmteZ8-TpYjIsir-EO7MzvdYt1biFs01s9ogtMO7AUDWD4e~MqJJIp5fMFq3CdOSjx54wd1wOUc6tdOxduoxVg5klI7DyIbpiVgCFJTkjfmWzbMEwWMlEfGAbBMWxwRcJuUtu~euT9R4ZXYvdOfHVR3SUlkqsVZgINawgGsla~9gdt0Jvp~wfaxL3cVC-qZscY6kVzbcAzeuPI041ROUhxKkTTc1ZPIBIUMmYnwdYXykOg56zQgVGKBlZlUI3Af6qicsL0zUfXCuC4U6kk2C0zlAMHHhdIll4CzT~poPrSjucfnJgyl8FA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Cannabis Compliance Board on May 15 approved a management services agreement allowing Sunday Co. LLC to participate in operations at Indoor Garden Farms' Carson City cultivation and production facilities while a transfer-of-interest application is processed.

David Staley, the CCB investigator assigned to the item, told the board staff had reviewed the management services agreement (MSA) between Indoor Garden Farms LLC and Sunday Co. LLC and “found the relationship between the parties appropriate” and identified no areas of concern. The MSA permits Sunday Co. to operate with board approval until the requested transfer of interest (TOI) is completed.

Representatives from the parties, including Matt Price of Sunday Co. and Mina Mafua for Indoor Garden Farms, appeared and declined to make a formal presentation. The board approved the MSA and added a condition that the parties return for a status check-in in 12 months because the transfer-of-interest process has not yet completed.

Why it matters: The approval gives an acquiring operator operational control during the TOI review period while preserving board oversight. The board’s 12-month check-in provides a scheduled opportunity to review progress toward final transfer and ensure compliance.

Details and next steps: The MSA applies to cultivation license C188 and production license P124 in Carson City. The parties must return to the board within 12 months for a status update; staff will monitor compliance through the CCB’s audit and inspection process.","The Cannabis Compliance Board approved a management services agreement allowing Sunday Co.

David Staley, division chief of investigations for the CCB, told the board that Nevada Consumption Lounge LLC (application ACONA2200107) had submitted the materials required to move to conditional-licensure status and that “no areas of concern were identified” with that investigation. Co-owners Natania Bennett and Jamella Brown described plans for a hospitality-focused lounge at a Clark County location, including live entertainment, food and mocktails, and a VIP area. The board approved the conditional license by voice vote.

The board separately reviewed a second conditional-license request from Limo Joint LLC (application ACON-A22-00034). Staley summarized prior staff concerns raised at a December 2024 hearing — including sales of hemp-derived products above Nevada THC limits and listings of Amanita muscaria products on websites — and said the applicant had taken corrective actions after staff inquiries. Staley also said staff discovered Amanita muscaria items being offered as late as April 2025 and that the applicant had told staff those items had been removed and that the websites would be sold if the board granted a conditional license.

Board members pressed the Limo Joint owner, Andrew Genuso, and his counsel about those past sales and whether the revenue from the websites had funded the lounge effort. Genuso and counsel said the hemp-related business had been sold in 2022, that the remaining problematic listings were removed in 2024, and that Genuso would divest websites and related businesses if the board approved the conditional license. Staff said corrective action had been taken after notice.

The board approved Limo Joint’s conditional license but inserted follow-up safeguards: the board accepted a friendly amendment requiring staff to provide a status report (or addendum to the investigative record) within approximately two years or upon completion of the licensee’s path to final licensure. Member Merritt recorded the sole formal dissent on the Limo Joint motion. The board noted that final licensure still requires local approvals and a final inspection by the CCB’s audit and inspection division.

Why it matters: The approvals expand Nevada’s regulated options for on-site cannabis consumption while signaling the board’s scrutiny of operators whose prior businesses sold products outside applicable rules. The board emphasized that conditional status does not allow operation until local approvals and final inspection are complete.

Details and next steps: Nevada Consumption Lounge owns a planned Clark County location; during questioning the applicants identified 1395 East Tropicana as a potential turnkey site. Limo Joint previously appeared before the board in December 2024; staff described a cease-and-desist sent related to hemp-derived products on Feb. 22, 2024, and said Genuso notified staff on April 1, 2024, that the hemp sales had ceased. On April 11, 2025, Genuso told staff Amanita muscaria listings were removed and that he would divest the websites within 60 days if the board approved the lounge license. Both applicants must complete inspections and local approvals before opening.","The Cannabis Compliance Board approved conditional licenses for two independent cannabis consumption lounges on May 15, 2025 — Nevada Consumption Lounge LLC, the first social-equity applicant to appear before the board, and Limo Joint LLC, which the board approved after addressing past business practice concerns and directing a follow-up review.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6239427,"CCB reports legislative activity, May 16 committee deadline approaching",185,6660000,6845000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed&start=6660&end=6845","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed/thumbnail_6660000.jpg","/articles/6239427/Nevada/CCB-reports-legislative-activity-May-16-committee-deadline-approaching","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239427-5281f9a72a8f3edb822d3009781f1cb5/orig.mp4?Expires=1770901149&Signature=NLDDIoLc42tafjgLLmJLhg8zx0GrYtgaNqQGMjSGJm2AbASO-BovsC9ZnDsHLp9luiaY5bycJbca1i72PYF5OGGSqrleHBWz~2CEW26dSj~xXYvO8dgUmJWtlAcjObmJHAJ6uKyDsTm~t3fnu2uRe2-faHJ6IYgCtrP-vuq4-LgmyjHRiOGzX12P4VpR1QaJHzdq~fxPsoT6Hu3A0rksCWhjrfxkT1wYSmBJKXzw1~IclIkQ7q8M16T8WwnbcP7iims~74LQFXbRxCSyD1cphiq3JJG~dtfvjBRKt1tuUvRJDM-3NMQbB9bY7KZj~7LR-xQy5DuZ3F0PBrsfqXoPhQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","CCB staff briefed the board on the status of multiple cannabis-related bills at the Nevada Legislature and reminded members that May 16, 2025, was a key committee-deadline date for second-house passage.

James (Executive Director) Hunt told the board that AB76 (board-sponsored) is in the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee and staff hoped for a hearing in the coming week. Hunt summarized other measures in both houses: AB149 (information-sharing agreements and UNLV funding), AB203 (multi‑part concept bill under revision), AB307 (two‑thirds tax vote proposal to shift wholesale/retail excise structure), AB308 (agent-card consolidation), AB504 (deceptive trade-practices enforcement resources), and several Senate bills including SB25 (fire marshal matters), SB41 (Taxation Department cannabis-permit proposal) and SB168 (pesticide regulation rulemaking assigned to the board). Hunt said many assembly measures were in Ways and Means and would proceed after the May 16 deadline.

Hunt also said the board’s budget was approved and closed and that the agency had requested a limited reclassification (data analyst) rather than an expansion of headcount. Staff plan to monitor bills that affect testing lot sizes and pesticide rules and to develop any regulations required by statute following the typical rulemaking process.

Why it matters: Several bills could change how cannabis is taxed, regulated and tested in Nevada and could affect licensing and compliance costs. The board’s actions on rulemaking, and any fiscal impacts of bills, will shape oversight and enforcement workloads.

Details: Staff will continue to coordinate with bill sponsors, the Nevada Department of Taxation and other agencies on technical language and budgetary impacts; staff noted SB41 and other items were still being worked through and that the board would engage in follow-up rulemaking where statutes require it.","CCB staff briefed the board on several cannabis-related bills moving through the Nevada Legislature ahead of a May 16 committee-passage deadline, including the board’s own AB76, bills on tax changes and agent-card consolidation, and bills addressing pesticides and retail testing lot sizes.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6239432,"CCB launches Las Vegas billboard campaign urging consumers to 'buy legal'",237,6878000,7115000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed&start=6878&end=7115","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3337716-eeb9118b57f1598eab815a45da00bfed/thumbnail_6878000.jpg","/articles/6239432/Nevada/CCB-launches-Las-Vegas-billboard-campaign-urging-consumers-to-buy-legal","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239432-bdfb9521226e5fb2500db769ecd0bbf5/orig.mp4?Expires=1770901149&Signature=O5vVvaRF0Vj-uZS2wlzLttQF-EZJMRr5FfjR81yskTY2McW07a-rdo5nKfJZx9FWIzlabyy~KNCLb0L1sCsN4zzKPHHWJducZ2UWvTTnh-3ccvFQjeHA6GHGHRGo~o9KwvFBGX0-U91u6GHOk7aD9sTz-Ix6WFpqv1wrPUvp44W5ymvls2xubUBBPkyAobAtXLTv~FZ1xjJFEUnrlnTT2aLFmeYg5p1EXmmpU-ymuv16wzUqxmmpPJ58KMWrc0ZG0zSEif06CCRwdLXYARWYLVuxkWMR-u2LLdNUFs-kLXcySrpxNSfg-XtMuxdNwCbEux2WI~MccOadvGdn-JetUw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Cannabis Compliance Board announced a digital billboard and online public-education campaign in the Las Vegas Valley designed to steer consumers toward licensed, tested cannabis products.

Executive staff said the pilot runs through June and includes 17 digital placements across the Las Vegas Valley, with placements near the state line, the airport, the resort corridor, downtown and major highways. The campaign tagline shown on the creative is “Don’t gamble on safety — buy legal cannabis.” The CCB’s website (ccb.nv.gov) includes an interactive map and a list of licensed dispensaries and their product offerings.

CCB staff said the campaign is a pilot limited to Southern Nevada given current budget constraints; the board plans to track week‑to‑week website clicks and to consider expanding or pivoting the approach based on measured engagement. Staff also noted an ongoing public education collaboration with state transportation and public-safety partners on social-media messaging.

Why it matters: The campaign aims to reduce the illicit market by encouraging purchases from regulated businesses where products are tracked and tested. Staff emphasized that delivery to the Las Vegas Strip is not legal under Nevada law and urged consumers to confirm a seller’s license.

Details: The pilot is funded from the CCB’s communications budget; staff said the campaign was negotiated to maximize placements within available funds and that the agency will report web‑analytics comparisons as the pilot runs.

The board did not take formal action on the campaign at the May 15 meeting; it was presented as a briefing item.","The Cannabis Compliance Board launched a digital billboard and online campaign in Southern Nevada urging consumers to purchase cannabis only from licensed retailers and directing consumers to the CCB website for verified licensee locations.","actionData","errors"]
