    Applications for licenses can’t be submitted until 60 days after enactment of the licensing ordinance, which was approved on June 20. And the initial window for applications is for those businesses that were already operating before the city council established the moratorium – the W. Liberty & Second location was not in operation before the moratorium, which was established in August 2010.

    However, the W. Liberty & Second location could qualify for the first round of license applications if the location were used by a business that was already operating before the moratorium , but at some other location that turned out not to meet the allowable zoning criteria.

    For a brief time, that location was in jeopardy of being eliminated from the allowable zoning, thorough use of an extended buffer. Long story short, with a 1000-foot buffer around schools, that location qualifies, but under a briefly considered but ultimately rejected proposal of a 1010 buffer, that location appears to be disqualified.

    Don’t lets get too far ahead of ourselves, the Man says otherwise: [link]

    While I fully qualify per the state’s medical guidelines, you won’t find my fingerprints on any of those places just in case the feds decide to go ape about it. All we need is one Teabagger in the right office to trash the country.

    Keep stopping and watching! It’s nice to know the neighbors look out for the nice little station. :)
