The Cannabis Licensing Lottery Sham – Kittery, Maine is the Latest Town to Get Bamboozled

Fast forward to the application week and closing dates, and the town of Kittery ended up with over 700 applications, netting the town over $530,000 in application fees alone.  Since each commercial zone, 1, 2, and 3 would have their own unique drawing, the numbers were skewed depending on the number of qualifying buildings that could be submitted as the location address on the application. For example, commercial zone 1 was the largest zoned area and had the bulk of the buildings that could be used for licensing, hence it had the most applications.  Zone 2 was the second largest zone, followed by zone 3.
