Neighbors of a planned medical marijuana dispensary in Kent are concerned about its location near families, the entrance the Kent State University, fraternity houses and the city's Portage County Municipal Courthouse.
The business, Slightly Toasted, is planning to open at 331 E. Main St. and brought site plans and a request for conditional zoning to the city's planning commission this week. The panel did not vote, however, after hearing from neighbors and determining there were additional details needed in the site plan before a vote.
Hearing commission members’ concerns, property owner James Dulick requested and was granted a continuance, which will enable him to add details to the site plan requested by commission members.
