Applications for licensed establishment notification amendments must be complete. They must include all required documents. (Information about required documents is in Step 4.)

Step 3.Navigate to the Online Permitting and Licensing System

• To submit a licensed establishment notification amendment, find the "License Type" column. Find the row with the licensed establishment, record name and address that you want to modify. In the right column, click "Amendment."
• Then, select "Notification" and click "Continue Application."
• Select the type of notification and explain why you are submitting this amendment. Then click "Continue Application."

If you have co-located medical and retail store licenses and you are only applying for a retail delivery permit, make note of that in your explanation. If you are applying to add or remove a marijuana delivery motor vehicle to a licensed transporter with delivery permit, select "Other" from the drop-down menu.

Step 5.City application review and payment

After submitting your complete application package, a city licensing technician will do a quality control review. The licensing technician will determine whether more information or fees are required. The quality control review could take 10 to 15 business days. It could take longer depending on the volume of applications pending before the Department.

If no fee or more information is required, a licensing technician will approve the notification amendment and complete the amendment.

If a fee is required, you will receive an email with an invoice. You must pay the required fees online. (Visit the Fees for marijuana license, permit and amendment applications webpage for more information.)

The fees will be listed in your account under the "My Records" tab. In the right column, there is a link to "Pay Fees Due." Click there and it will take you to the online payment screen.

• You can pay fees online with a Discover, Visa or Mastercard credit or debit card.
• You can pay online from a bank account. To do so, you must have a routing number, account number, the account holder's name, and the account type.

If you can only pay in cash, you must pay in person with your invoice at the cashier's desk. It's on the second floor of the Wellington E. Webb Municipal Office Building.

Print a copy of the payment screen. A receipt will not be emailed or mailed to you.

Step 6.Completion of amendment

After all required information or more information is submitted and fees are paid, a licensing technician will approve the notification amendment and complete the amendment.
