A decisive zoning hearing is set for Friday as a marijuana firm hopes to open a dispensary at the former Rainforest Cafe site.
The advisory stated only that a pair of companies were looking to set up shop in the space, still adorned with the massive frog and mushrooms left behind by the last tenant."We're going to have another pot dispensary," Brown recalled the person saying, clearly referring to the growing number of marijuana shops in the area.
The company behind the proposal, Progressive Treatment Solutions, ran into problems even before Brown got involved. At least four weed stores have already opened in that area, and PTS didn't fit the bill as a social equity firm. Another paperwork issue delayed the next scheduled hearing on Oct. 21: Zoning Administrator Patrick Murphy had listed PTS as the sole applicant in recommending approval of the site.
"I think it's a classic case of trying to not follow the rules and trying to be as sneaky as you can," he said. During a contentious community meeting, Bio-Pharm's chief operating officer Kevin Munroe explained how the company qualified: His father, Michael F. Munroe Jr., had been arrested for weed in the 1970s.
