Three informational meetings will be held in Ridgefield in the coming weeks for residents to discuss the pros and cons of retail cannabis.  The informational meetings will be held in the Ridgefield Town Hall Large Conference room at 10am on Saturdays March 19th and 26th, and April 2nd.  When Connecticut legalized recreational use of cannabis, it was left up to local leaders to determine how their communities would approach retail sales.  Connecticut municipalities can either take no action, allow establishments with regulations, ban them, or impose a temporary moratorium.  When medical marijuana was approved in Connecticut, Ridgefield put a temporary pause on facilities, and later banned them.
