Distribution limits are firmly set at 2–3 grams per day and 30–60 grams per month per member, with all transactions documented. A mandatory required setback from educational institutions applies to all club premises, and violations result in immediate license revocation. Cannabis must be consumed on-site — taking it outside the premises is illegal at all licensed facilities.
