Class 5 cannabis retail businesses (7R1Y and 7R1Z)

Description

Two cannabis retail support resolutions came up; the council flagged unresolved issues on one applicant — a second-floor shop with an egress/elevator problem and stale community-benefit organization lists.

Impact summary

Support could stall for the second-floor applicant until safety access and community benefit commitments are fixed.
