N.Y. Cannabis Law § 66: License renewal

§ 66. License renewal. 1. Each license, issued pursuant to this

article, may be renewed upon application therefore by the licensee and

the payment of the fee for such license as prescribed by this article.

In the case of applications for renewals, the board may dispense with

the requirements of such statements as it deems unnecessary in view of

those contained in the application made for the original license, but in

any event the submission of photographs of the licensed premises shall

be dispensed with, provided the applicant for such renewal shall file a

statement with the board to the effect that there has been no alteration

of such premises since the original license was issued. The board may

make such rules as it deems necessary, not inconsistent with this

chapter, regarding applications for renewals of licenses and permits and

the time for making the same.

2. Each applicant must submit to the office documentation of the

racial, ethnic, and gender diversity of the applicant's employees and

owners prior to a license being renewed. In addition, the board shall

consult with the chief equity officer and executive director to create a

social responsibility framework agreement that fosters racial, ethnic,

and gender diversity in their workplace and make the adherence to such

agreement a conditional requirement of license renewal.

3. The board shall provide an application for renewal of a license

issued under this article not less than ninety days prior to the

expiration of the current license.

4. The board may only issue a renewal license upon receipt of the

prescribed renewal application and renewal fee from a licensee if, in

addition to the criteria in this section, the licensee's license is not

under suspension and has not been revoked.

5. Each applicant must maintain a labor peace agreement with a

bona-fide labor organization that is actively engaged in representing or

attempting to represent the applicant's employees and the maintenance of

such a labor peace agreement shall be an ongoing material condition of

licensure.

6. Each applicant must provide evidence of the execution of their plan

for benefitting communities and people disproportionally impacted by

cannabis law enforcement required for initial licensing pursuant to

section sixty-four of this article.
