It was last on the agenda, but the topic of recreational cannabis sales was passionately discussed. We’re not going to stop it. We need to go and prevent it in areas around schools for hospitals. Every place that is vulnerable to our children,” said commission member Susan Locks.
While the hour-long discussion didn’t allow for public comment, people who live in town did attend. Stacey Dolan says she is not against dispensaries being in Southington, but does have concerns.
“I don’t want it near anywhere where it’s going to cause major traffic congestion,” she said.
Dolan is also frustrated with the process. She doesn’t want this decision solely in the hands of the Planning and Zoning Commission and has started a petition to bring this topic to a referendum.

SOUTHINGTON â A Wolcott restaurateur is readying a food truck for a seasonal spot on Meriden-Waterbury Turnpike where heâll offer steak sandwiches, hamburgers, salads and his own relish.
Marty DiVitoâs request for permission to set up on his own land prompted town officials to consider rules on food trucks.
DiVito got permission from the Zoning Board of Appeals this winter to set up his food truck for one year. Usually food trucks are looking for permission to set up at a festival or other event and board chairwoman Alicia Novi said there wasnât really a category for what DiVito was doing.
