I have a legal right to occupy the proposed licensed premises and have uploaded a copy of my proof of legal

or any part of the licensed premises. Except as provided in OAR 845-025-1160, failure to retain such control or

I
f there is no direct access to the property where the premises is located from a public right-of-way, this
means that I must have an easement to allow licensee representatives and Commission staff to access
the property. I understand that without such an easement, the property owner who is entitled to control
access to the premises has an ownership interest as described in OAR 845-025-1045 and must be a

Section 5 Operating and Security Plan
An Operating Plan and Security Plan are required for all license types. The Commission has set minimum standards for the security of
a licensed recreational marijuana premises. Licensees are responsible for the security of all marijuana items on the premises and those
in transit on behalf of the licensee. Adherence to the minimum requirements does not release a licensee from this responsibility.
OAR 845-025-1405 allows any licensee or applicant to request a waiver of any of the security requirements described in OAR 845-025-
1400 to 845-025-1470. A request for a security waiver must document the specific rule to be waived and document a proposed
alternative method to meet the objective of the rule. Waiver requests are subject to approval by the Commission and may be denied.
Broad requests to waive all of the security requests will be denied.
By signing this form, you agree to comply with all security and operational requirements specified in rule for which you do not have a
waiver specifically approved by the Commission. You can find the full text of the OLCC’s recreational marijuana administrative rules in

Section 5.1 Minor Control Plan
A minor control plan is required for all operations. By signing this form, you agree to comply with the following plan unless you have an
alternate plan explicitly approved by the Commission:
Standard retailer minor control plan:

business and at time of sale. Any person under 21 who does not have a medical mar
ijuana card will be refused access. Any person under 18

e asked to leave the premises.
Employee identification will be checked prior to hiring and no person will be employed who is not 21 and who does not have a
valid marijuana
