Council sets May 27 public hearings for four medical marijuana caregiver license renewals
Summary
The Timber Cumberland Town Council set a May 27 public hearing date to consider renewal applications for four medical marijuana registered caregiver licenses at addresses in town.
The Timber Cumberland Town Council voted on May 5 to set public hearings for May 27 to consider renewal applications for four medical marijuana registered caregiver licenses.
Madam Chair (presiding officer) opened the item, noting that under the town charter there would be an opportunity for public comment on each agenda item. Councilor (motion-maker) moved to set a May 27 public hearing date for four license-renewal items; the motion covered applications for Evergreen Cannabis Company (Andrew Pettengill) at 222 Gray Road, Christian Pettengale at 93 Lower Methodist Road, SSJA LLC (Jacob Atkinson) at 212 Gray Road, and Samuel Hebert at 210 Gray Road. The motion was seconded and the council approved the block motion.
Why it matters: Setting the hearing date starts the formal municipal process to review and act on each renewal application; public comment will be allowed at the hearing as required by the town charter.
Details: The council emphasized that materials were still pending for the applications and that setting the May 27 date was procedural only, not an approval of any license. The chair said, “we are waiting on materials, and this is only to set a date for a public hearing, not, make any kind of, policy change.” The council handled the four items in a single block motion.
Next steps: The council will hold the public hearings on May 27; staff is responsible for circulating the outstanding materials to council members and the public before that meeting.
