WATSONVILLE >> Getting elevated at the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds could mean more than a Ferris wheel ride after officials approved up to four cannabis events at the site per year.
The events—which would not coincide with the annual Santa Cruz County Fair itself—could include sale of cannabis and smoking and vaping in permitted outdoor areas.
The temporary event permits were unanimously approved by the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday.
Authorization would function similar to a filming permit, with each event subject to a list of conditions and restrictions—some standardized, and some specific to each proposed event.
