PHILLIPSTON — After first approving waivers to several zoning bylaws and setting conditions for the eventual issuance of a special permit, Phillipston’s Planning Board Monday night approved the site plan for a retail cannabis business. Local entrepreneur Damon Schmidt plans to establish the business at the corner of State Road/Route 2A and Baldwin Hill Road.
The board’s decision was made following a public hearing that had been continued from a previous date. The matter had been delayed in order to give consultant Patrick McCarty of McCarty Associates of Leominster the opportunity to review Schmidt’s plans. Those plans had been revised after McCarty in February had raised concerns regarding several issues with the proposal.
