Somerville Meeting to Address Proposed Davis Square Medical Marijuana Dispensary
Patch.com article linked here: Somerville Meeting to Address Proposed Davis Square Medical Marijuana Dispensary is reporting there is a neighborhood meeting this coming Monday to discuss proposed dispensary at 245 Elm St, currently housing Family Dollar.
Anyone know where the permit application can be located, or any official meeting notice? [EDIT: see meeting notice below] Proposed operator is Garden Remedies which just opened their first location in Newton just a week ago, on Nov 15.
With Question 4 passing, it's important to note the transition process & timeline for retail dispensaries. As I understand it, the ballot initiative states that retail licenses will be issued by the new Cannabis Control Commission by Jan 1, 2018, with existing medical dispensaries being given preference for retail licenses. If this deadline is missed and there is no framework in place to issue licenses by that date, then all medical dispensaries are automatically allowed to sell to the public.
EDIT 11/24: The meeting is now on the official Somerville calendar, linked here: Community Meeting: Medical Marijuana Dispensary. The meeting is Monday, Nov 28th 2016, 6:00 PM at Community Baptist Church on 31 College Ave.
