Two cannabis establishments and a downtown Hartford entertainment facility are on the Planning and Zoning Commission’s agenda for a virtual meeting starting at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
Developer Kevin Henry has applied for a special permit for an adult-use cannabis retailer at 1396 Park St., in a building on the same 3-acre property as Hartford’s Parkville Market.
The property is owned by developer Carlos Mouta.
The application was received June 14 and a public hearing is required to open before Aug. 18. The 4,380-square-foot building is the smallest of three at 1390-1400 Park St.
A hearing on a separate request to open an adult-use cannabis retail shop in downtown Hartford, which began at the commission’s June 14 meeting, is set to resume Tuesday night. The applicant, Derrick Gibbs, plans to open a dispensary at 89 Arch St. The deadline to close the hearing is July 19.
Gibbs and his partners are under contract to purchase the 2,500-square-foot building, which was put up for sale at the end of last year after the previous anchor, Blind Pig Pizza, closed.
Another applicant, Hartford lawyer Jose L. Del Castillo, is seeking a special permit for a drinking and entertainment assembly place, including an outdoor cafe with a bar.
Castillo wants to convert a former downtown Hartford synagogue at 215 Pearl St., into an events space targeting private and community gatherings, including weddings, birthdays and anniversary parties.
