December 20th Town Council Meeting: Cannabis manufacturing licenses and more

During the December 20th Town Council meeting  the public will have an opportunity to offer comments on the following resolutions:

1) Two resolutions re: the Park West Diner/Nutley Foods Inc.,  located at 1400 Route 46, involving the transfer of the plenary retail consumption liquor license with respect to chapter 7 bankruptcy for the CGMS diner/corp, “trading as” Six Brothers Diner located in Little Falls, New Jersey.

2) Two Township resolutions supporting applications submitted by Leif Enterprises, LLC and Sorella Minitura, LLC to the Cannabis Regulatory Commission for a Conditional Class 2 manufacture license within Little Falls, NJ to operate a manufacturing facility within Little Falls, New Jersey.

 

These applications are in accordance with two cannabis ordinances that were passed during the Town Council’s July 26th meeting. 

 

Ordinance No. 1415 authorizing establishments duly licensed by the State of New Jersey to grow, process, wholesale, distribute and deliver cannabis, while it prohibits the retail sale of cannabis to consumers within the Business B-2 District specifically along the Route 46 corridor; and Ordinance 1416 establishing a special commercial zone for establishments to grow, process, wholesale, distribute and deliver cannabis, while it prohibits the retail sale of cannabis to consumers.  The special commercial zone (Designated SC) would be established from the existing Industrial zone located on the west side of Paterson Avenue between the existing TV-CBD Zone and Route 46, which was previously designated LI on the zoning map.

The December 20th meeting  will utilize a hybrid model.

This offers residents the option to either attend the meeting in-person or virtually via a live-streamed zoom link.

Residents should note that Council President Sgobba announced on November 23rd that the Town Council will eliminate the ability of Little Falls residents to participate in hybrid meetings, effective January 2022.

 

In person attendance will be limited to 25 members of the public. Wearing face masks is mandatory.

Members of the public attending remotely, who want to make a public comment, should raise their hand in the zoom application.  The meeting’s moderator will queue the members of the public and the Council president will recognize them in order.
