The city of Riverside will vote Thursday whether to sell three acres of land at the Center of Flight, near the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, to the Farms of Riverside, LLC, according to Councilman Steve Fullenkamp.

The parties are negotiating a site that will ensure the cultivation facility is not within 500 feet of the Mad River Trail, said Riverside law director Dalma Grandjean said earlier this month.

The sale would be contingent upon the Farms of Riverside obtaining a license to cultivate medical marijuana from the state. The state is aiming to have applications for cultivators approved and reviewed by early November.

Earlier this month, the Dayton Daily News reported the proposed medical marijuana cultivation facility could be too close to Mad River Trail bike path, complicating the bid to land the business in the city.

Applicants for medical marijuana businesses in Ohio must demonstrate that the business will not be located within 500 feet of a school, church, public library, public playground or public park.

Five Rivers MetroParks manages the Mad River Trail. Under the MetroPark's bylaws, a park is defined as, "Any land or water area owned, leased, managed, or otherwise controlled by Five Rivers MetroParks."
