Clearview residents oppose second neighborhood pot shop
EVERETT — Clearview residents spoke against a citizen-initiated amendment to county code that would allow a second marijuana retailer in their unincorporated neighborhood.
During public comment, about 20 people spoke against the amendment. Seven people spoke in favor; all were associated with the potential new cannabis shop.
For the nearly 3,500 people who live in Clearview, it’s the latest round in a fight that’s stretched for more than 10 years. Clearview is a census-designated place totaling about 4 square miles, 10 miles southeast of Everett on Highway 9.
“I don’t want another cannabis shop in the area where I live,” Clearview resident Lori McConnell said during public comment. “I have a simple belief. People need to know about changes happening in their community and be given a fair opportunity to have their say bout those changes.’
