Rocky Hill-based developer CCC Construction wants to convert the old Webster Bank training facility into a cannabis warehouse, a move that some residents have condemned due to risk of smell and proximity to schools. The ZBA’s public hearing will consider the warehouse for special exception and variance approval. The timeline of construction depends on the approval, according to a spokesperson for Stewart. If approved, the facility will be 0.7 miles from the CREC Academy of Science and Innovation and 0.6 miles from Gaffney Elementary School. It would also be 0.8 miles from E.C. Goodwin Technical Magnet School. Salerno served on city council from 2013 to 2021 when members created zoning regulations in anticipation of cannabis legalization and businesses like the proposed warehouse.
