Dobbs Ferry Voters Go To Polls Over Cannabis Sales

DOBBS FERRY, NY — Voters in Dobbs Ferry will be going to the polls Tuesday to decide whether to allow retail cannabis shops in the village.

The polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday.

On Dec. 13, the village trustees adopted a local law that rescinded the prohibition against establishing marijuana retail shops in Dobbs Ferry that had been decided a year earlier.

The new local law was subject to a permissive referendum, which meant the public gets to have the final say, as mandated by state cannabis law.

Polling places can be found by searching through this website.

Absentee ballot deadlines are:

• Monday is the last day for an applicant or agent to apply in person at the Board of Elections for the General Village/Special Election absentee ballot.
• Tuesday is the last day to postmark the General Village/Special Election absentee ballot by mail. The ballot must be received by the Board of Elections no later than March 28.
• Tuesday is the last day to deliver the General Village/Special Election absentee ballot in person to the Board of Elections or at any poll site throughout the county, by the close of the polls on election day.
