EASTHAMPTON -- One of the state's first recreational cannabis shops is slated to open before the end of the year at the Keystone Mill.
Principals with I.N.S.A., Inc. appeared before the Planning Board Tuesday and walked away with a special permit to conduct recreational adult cannabis sales at the site of their current medical marijuana dispensary at 122 Pleasant Street.
The permit was granted with six conditions, including a provision to have INSA return in three months, and again in six months, to iron out any problems with parking, traffic, and other protocols.
The recreational portion of the shop could be up and running before Thanksgiving, said said Stephen M. Reilly, general counsel for the enterprise.
The state is poised to let some marijuana grown for medical purposes be sold as recreational, said Reilly.
