HIGHBROW RECREATIONAL BATH MAINE INSTALL
Stores are required to install security measures, including 24-hour surveillance, and passers-by should not be able to smell marijuana from outside the building.īath’s rules also set a 500-foot buffer around schools, licensed child care facilities, public parks, substance abuse rehabilitation or treatment centers and halfway houses. Once cleared to open, Highbrow will need to follow Bath’s retail rules for medical and recreational marijuana stores. “Depending on the nature of changes, if any, made to the underlying application since obtaining a conditional license and the outcome of a pre-licensure security inspection conducted by Office of Marijuana Policy, the process to obtain an active license can take as few as two weeks,” said Heidrich. Once the state receives Highbrow’s local authorization form, the process for gaining an active license can begin, said Heidrich. Averill said the city hasn’t yet received a local authorization form from Highbrow.

Highbrow sells cannabis, CBD products and edibles in its other locations, according to the company’s website. Company representatives did not return requests for comment Tuesday about what its Bath location will sell.īath has not returned a local authorization form for Highbrow to the state, according to David Heidrich, director of engagement and community outreach for the office. “We appreciate all of the support from the city of Bath and are excited to open the doors and become a contributing member of the city.” “We still have the final stages of approval at the state level prior to opening, however, we have the required paperwork ready and anticipate completing this process and to open our doors in the month of March,” Highbrow Business Manager Richelle Stacy wrote in an email to The Times Record.
HIGHBROW RECREATIONAL BATH MAINE CODE
According to Bath Planner Ben Averill, the owners have to finalize the certificate with the city’s code enforcement officer and complete the landscaping. The Bath planning board granted the store a conditional certificate of occupancy last week. Highbrow, a marijuana chain with locations in Topsham, Manchester, Rockland and Waldoboro, is planning to open a recreational marijuana store on the southbound side of Route 1 in Bath near the Bath Shopping Center and next to the U.S.
