Recreational Cannabis Update
The topic of the sale of recreational cannabis within the Village was recently reviewed at a Special Meeting of the Lombard Plan Commission. The Commission considered zoning text amendments to provide for such sales, as initially discussed in a July 31,2019 Special workshop Session of the Village Board. The Plan Commission recommended approval of the text amendments to provide for such sales as a permitted use in certain districts, but recommended that such sales in the downtown area be prohibited and recommended that such sales uses be listed as conditional uses in the B3 and B4 Commercial Districts.
