A pair of proposed cannabis stores will be going to public hearings before city council.
Brookwood Properties has applied to rezone a storefront at 2626 Vance Rd., within part of the building housing Costless Liquor and Custom Car & Audio to allow cannabis sales.
Tabor View Holdings is seeking to rezone 6055 Monterey Rd. to allow retail cannabis sales. The storefront is currently vacant and shares a building with the Hart Wholesale Liquor Store.
On Monday night, city council gave both rezoning applications first and second reading, and the applications will go to public hearings to allow public input.
The proposed Vance Road store would be a 237 sq. metre (2,550 sq. foot) retail location, open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
The proposed Monterey Road location would operate within the existing building, and is also planning to be open seven day a week from 9 a.m to 11 p.m. daily.
The public hearings hadn't been scheduled as of Tuesday, but the city will publish notifications seeking public input once the hearings have been scheduled.
