Metuchen Planning Board To Hear Drive-Thru Marijuana Dispensary Application

METUCHEN, NJ – On Thursday, the Metuchen Planning Board is scheduled to hear an application for a drive-thru marijuana dispensary.

Dasco Solutions LLC has submitted an application proposing the dispensary at 700 Middlesex Avenue. The site is a 3,037 vacant bank building with three drive-thru lanes, according to the application.

The applicant proposes to convert the vacant bank building into a retail cannabis facility. The existing building will be modified to accommodate the new use.

No changes to the existing site plan are currently proposed. There currently is a total of 10 parking spaces on-site.

If approved, anticipated regular business hours will be 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.

The proposed site is known as Parcel A of the Amended Oakite Redevelopment Plan. The property is comprised of 25,956 square feet and includes the vacant bank building.

The site was the subject of a Planning Board approval memorialized by a resolution adopted on May 1, 2003, which granted site plan and conditional use approval, along with variances and waivers.

Dasco Solutions LLC is seeking conditional use approval along with preliminary and final major site plan approval.
