Dobbs Ferry Voters Say 'No' To Cannabis Retail Shops

DOBBS FERRY, NY — Voters in Dobbs Ferry overwhelmingly said no to allowing retail cannabis establishments in the village.

According to unofficial results, 67 percent of registered voters were against the permissive referendum, with 33 percent voting for it.

In December, village trustees adopted a local law that rescinded the prohibition against establishing marijuana retail shops in Dobbs Ferry that had been decided the previous year.

The public got to have the final say, because the new local law was subject to a permissive referendum.

Patch reached out to the village for a comment, but did not immediately receive a reply.
