The Newington Plan and Zoning Commission has withdrawn its application for a proposed cap on the number of retail and micro-cultivator cannabis establishments.
A hearing on the proposed cap had been scheduled for July 27. Town Planner Renata Bertotti said commissioners decided to wait on imposing any cap on the number of permits until after the state begins issuing licenses for retail cannabis businesses.
Newington’s cap was proposed after the state eliminated regulations limiting retail and micro-cultivator units in towns to one per 25,000 people.
