Jersey City cannabis shop sues city planning board for approving competitor’s plan to open a block away
A Jersey City cannabis shop is suing a competitor and the city’s planning board, saying the board illegally approved the other shop to open within 600 feet of its location.
The Cannabis Place 420′s 10-page lawsuit claims the board made its decision to approve Kushmart after the city’s supervising planner, Matt Ward, incorrectly stated “there were no retailers” within 600 feet of The Cannabis Place 420 door at 1544 Kennedy Blvd., near Custer Avenue, on the southern end of the city.
