January 29, 2025Why Did Cannabis Shops Choose Bay Ridge?
At the Community Board 10 Meeting this week and the Committee Meeting early this month, one fantastic CB 10 member asked a prospective shop owner who their target audience was.
I was shocked that older white women is the target audience for cannabis shops. I thought the shops chose Bay Ridge because they are cash-only businesses and they wanted a safe community (these shops can not use credit cards yet, so there are usually more robberies) .
Many articles online show that women 65+ are using cannabis for pain management and mental health.
Our community is going to be covered with as many pot shops as they can legally fit because of our greatest commodity – the women who live here.
When liquor stores request to open in a community, the Community Board can make stipulations to the New York State Liquor Authority.
The Cannabis Board in NY will not allow any stipulations. This Cannabis Board has made so many mistakes rolling out this initiative and they they think they are the experts on our community. YET the Cannabis Board failed to tell us that our community is being unfairly targeted because of the population.
Senator Andrew Gounardes voted in favor of the cannabis shops, without understanding that our community could be targeted by these shops. Gounardes did not speak out after the community board meeting when this information came out. He is to too busy playing on social media and posting photos of himself. How many photos do we need of him?
