TAUNTON After a several-weeks-long injunction that kept the Taunton City Council from moving forward with retail marijuana applicants, the council voted to give licenses to three new applicants Tuesday evening.
The retailers include GTE Taunton at 295 Broadway, HTC Trinity at 354 Winthrop St. and LMCC at 93 County St.
Every city council-member voted in favor of giving the applicants licenses except for Deborah Carr, who has been staunchly anti-marijuana and voted against every applicant. I m happy that the council has granted licenses to some highly qualified applicants. I understand this is a new type of business being brought to the city and understand the concerns of some, but feel we have the proper protocols in place that these will be as least obtrusive as possible while providing product to our citizens, Committee on Police and License Chairman David Pottier said in a statement.
