SHELTON — Rodeo Cannabis, which bills itself as the largest cannabis farm in New England hopes to make Shelton home to its first retail location.
Arthur Linares, co-founder and CEO of the Connecticut-based company, filed an application to open a hybrid medical and recreational dispensary in Crown Point Center off Bridgeport Avenue less than a day after the Planning and Zoning Commission’s moratorium on such establishments officially ended.
“We love Shelton, the people, the business-friendly town,” said Linares, who co-founded Rodeo Cannabis with Brian Faye. “It feels like a perfect fit.”
The commission, at its meeting last month, deadlocked, 3-3, on a motion to prohibit such establishments in Shelton. The deadlock means the motion failed, allowing applications to be filed starting April 1.
The plans go before the commission Wednesday. Linares said there is no specific timeframe for opening.
