April 26, 2023 Special Meeting Minutes

Mr. Smeraldo asked what's the control mechanisms to make sure that that they don't have an overcrowded situation. Mr. Craig said that the control mechanism is that at the check point at the main entrance, where you have security officers be checking those ID's and they'll only be able to allow as many people in the building as the occupancy is allowed, so they'll be consistent with the with the fire codes and occupancy of the building. Mr. Smeraldo asked if people can use both exits. Mr. Craig said the egress is only for the front except for handicap access in the rear, so if there was some type of emergency both exits will be available, but for business purposes the main entrance will be for the clients to enter to the facility and be vetted except for the rear of the building which will be for handicap. Mr. Wilkes asked how far can the cameras see. Mr. Craig said that he is not sure that he can reveal those details to the public for security purposes, but our primary focus is for the building and the property itself to have complete 360-degree coverage that will be viewable not only by the security staff on site, but also available to the Police Department and emergency, which is required by the regulations to the cannabis Regulatory Commission.
