Hello Ward 8 Neighbours,
The Public Notice period has started for a cannabis retailer looking to open a retail store at 171 Mohawk Rd. E, Unit 1 in Ward 8.
For more details, please continue reading below…
The City provided an update to the Ward 8 office, indicating that a Notice of Application for a Cannabis Retail Store Authorization was received for Silverleaf Cannabis, which would utilize 171 Mohawk Rd. E. as its retail location (Mohawk and Upper Wellington).
With this news, residents in Ward 8 can have their say on this proposed location.
From now until July 2, residents can file a written response to the proposed location by following this link.
After the 15 day period, any written submissions will be copied and delivered to the applicant who then has a 5 day window to respond to the written submissions. Within 15 days of that, the Registrar will make an authorization decision.
As cannabis retail locations are a provincial matter, it will be the Province which has the final say over authorization of any cannabis retailers in the City of Hamilton.
However, when the City of Hamilton authorized cannabis retail within the City, Council set several priorities for cannabis retail locations.
The proposed 171 Mohawk Rd. E. location passes both the AGCO Regulations and the City of Hamilton’s retail location priorities.
