The nearly 16,000-square-foot, two-story Sessions By the Bay, slated to open next December, would be the first weed lounge in San Diego County.

Alex also confirmed to NBC 7 that Sessions By the Bay had partnered with Sycuan — which also owns the U.S. Grant Hotel; the Hotel Solamar, in the Gaslamp; and the Singing Hills Golf Resort, in El Cajon; as well as their casino resort in El Cajon — and had signed a lease with the SDTC.

Alex, who is 39, has worked in the cannabis industry since 2009 and has owned a dispensary in San Diego in the past. National City has concerns, of course, that all the cannabis businesses — two others were also approved in Tuesday night's vote — will operate in a way to protect the health and safety of the public and that they will generate tax revenue for the city to support the general fund.

As part of their applications in Phase 2, National City wanted to see what value the businesses could bring to the community besides just running the business well, Alex told NBC 7. Currently, the area is mostly occupied by parking lots and industrial buildings. Per the ordinance: “ 'Consumption lounge’ means an area that is part of the premises of a state-licensed, locally permitted commercial cannabis retail business.” At this point, that doesn't appear to present a lot of options for locations.
