[Massplanners] [EXTERNAL] Sunday Marijuana Sales in MASS

[Thomas Bott]

Thanks Rick. My reply to you should mostly likely be sent at the end of the week due to the unwritten rules of Friday post to the List Serve. In the interim I will be reviewing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_hands and Pencil Thin Moustaches  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxbVModReMoThank you all for your responses.
The Board voted this evening to approve a Special Permit to allow sales from 8-8 Monday thru Saturday and 10-8 on Sunday amending their initial March 2021 Special Permit allowing sales from 9-8 Mon thru Sat and 12-8 on Sunday. This puts the sale of Recreational MJ on par with packies in Town. Carver's Non-Medical Marijuana OverlayDistrict Bylaw included the former as default times if hours of operation were not included in a Special Permit. The previous Sunday hours were due to concerns from a church that occupied a former single family house near the site. The church then sold their property to the marijuana business which now occupies the prior sanctuary. Apparently landlords move in mysterious ways.TBott

Hi Thomas,

 

I recently dove into the state regs for staff report on a proposed ordinance amendment to expand hours of operation for retail here. As far as I could find, there are no hour or day restrictions on adult-use retail sales. Delivery and social consumption have some hour restrictions. Other than that, the state regs defer to municipal restrictions.

 

The table on page 2 of the staff report summarizes some local retail hours, which seem to follow local package store hours for the most part:https://newbedford-ma.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/46/20230410163115/Case_23-15_Marijuana-Ordinance-Amendment_Staff-Report.pdf.

Dear Planners:

I should rightly know working in a right to farm community but before the folks from IT barge in with an intervention for all my search results for marijuana sales, 

Is there an alcohol blue laws type limitation on Sunday sales of  the Devil's Lettuce here in the Commonwealth. I am on page 87 of  152 of 935 CMR. I have found a few shops with early hours by using the Google machine.

    Joint Operations Sunday 9-9

    NETA Recreation Sunday 8-9

    Capital Cannabis 9-8

Asking, of course, for a friend.

TBott
