Resident questions municipal cultivator license; council says support resolution allows new applicant to pursue CRC approval for 15 Leonard St.
Summary
A resident asked about a municipal cultivator license for 15 Leonard Street after the prior licensee lost its state authorization. Council explained a resolution of support enables a new applicant to seek licensing with the CRC; the matter was discussed during public comment and appears on the consent agenda.
During public comment on June 12, resident Stephen Hack asked for clarification about an agenda item related to a municipal cultivator license. Council members and staff explained that the prior cultivator at 15 Leonard Street lost its state license, that the borough revoked the municipal license, and that a new applicant intends to seek borough support to apply to the CRC (Cannabis Regulatory Commission) for authorization to operate at the same location.
Council described the action on the agenda as a resolution of support that would allow the applicant to apply to the CRC for a municipal license for 15 Leonard Street. The consent agenda (resolutions 25‑115 through 25‑123) passed on a unanimous roll call earlier in the meeting; the transcript indicates the cultivator support resolution is among the consent items, though the item was not discussed further after the public question.
The council did not provide additional details about the buyer/seller transaction or the state‑level reasons the prior license was revoked; the mayor and staff characterized the matter as a local step permitting the applicant to approach the CRC.
