[Neighbors] Retail Cannabis Stores in Nob Hill at 3636 Monte Vista Blvd NE and 629 Amherst Dr. NE

[Robert L Anderson]

And that same city councilor, now gone thankfully, was the deciding vote on the A.R.T. project which I would say started a decline of our main street.

Seems having a city councilor whose works for the cannabis industry has its drawbacks.

A balanced business mix is imperative for a healthy district. Approving any all cannabis operations shows a disregard for the futureand current value  of Nob Hill. Take a look at North 4th between Menaul and Candelaria for an example of too many cannabis shops. 
> Recently, several of our neighborhood  businesses spoke up about the City allowing 3 cannabis operations being approved on one  block on Central. Improper application procedures were brought to light, permits for two denied. Neighborhood resident and business participation is the only way the keep our district a desirable place to live and shop!
