City of Meadow Lake approves second cannabis retailer application
The City of Meadow Lake has agreed to a zoning amendment bylaw and approved a discretionary use application that will make way for the city to welcome in just its second cannabis retailer.
During Monday’s council meeting, the City held a public hearing to gather feedback on allowing another cannabis outlet to operate in the community. At the hearing, two people spoke on the matter, one in favour of the move, and the other opposed.
Led by Mayor Merlin Seymour, the hearing began with an opening statement from Expansion Specialist Jason Keeling.
He spoke in favour of Spruce Buds, a Saskatchewan-based cannabis company, and their intention of supporting local workers while supplying products grown in the province.
