Message: Hi - ’m writing to share my concern about the proposed dispensary across from Happy Hearts. It’s out of character for Croton, particularly in this location. As amom of teens, | do not need them to have even easier access/reminders of how they can get pot. Anyway, everyone mail orders this stuff. We don’t need a tacky shop with LED cannabis leaves in the window. (My assumption on that could be wrong but, gross.) Thank you.

FAQ Protection by INKY *** CAUTION: External sender.*** Hi engineering crew- | heard you were collecting feedback from the community. Appreciate it! My comment would be to limit the hours to 9-5 if it’s going forward, something normal daytime like to reduce any potential for “sketchy” stuff at night if lots of people are coming in to Croton to shop there.

Message: Hello Ms. Stapleton, | am writing to share my opinion on a dispensary opening in Croton. Living in the Harmon area, this dispensary would be mere blocks from my home. | have so much pride in our town, especially the family oriented nature and walkability. | don’t want myself or my kids walking past a cannabis dispensary daily. Furthermore, it ruins the feel of the neighborhood and | feet it will be off-putting for people wanting to buy homes here considering it will be the first thing you see coming into Croton. If the dispensary had been here when we were looking for a home several years ago, | would have avoided Croton. Please reconsider allowing this business to open here. Rebecca Benash
