Requesting to rescind and vacate Ordinance Number O14-069 for a Special Use Permit for a medical cannabis dispensing facility use on the property located at 1271 N. Lake Street, Aurora, Illinois, 60506 (The City of Aurora - 19-1018 / AU10/3-19.226-SU - TV - Ward 6)
Mrs. Vacek said this did not get a license through the State. There are conditions on this that have not been met, so we are looking to revoke this just to kind of clean up
all of these cannabis related uses. They either didn’t start construction to move in or they didn’t meet the conditions of the Ordinance that was passed, so the city is looking to revoke this. I make a motion to move this forward to the Building, Zoning and Economic Development Committee next week on November 27th. Written notices have been sent out to the applicants and the current owners, so they are well aware of us looking to revoke this, or they should be well aware of that. Mrs. Morgan seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously.
