The plaza backs directly onto an undesignated, natural space comprised primarily of thick vegetation and resultantly limited observation capability. This reduces overall “visual accountability” compared to the front of the store, making this space potentially vulnerable to loitering or other forms of unlawful behaviour. It is important that patrons who purchase cannabis at the store do not migrate to this space to consume it.
Property is situated within an existing neighbourhood based commercial plaza in south Windsor, backing onto a thickly wooded space with limited ongoing observation capability
Front of proposed new retail store is visible from Howard Avenue but the adjacent wooded area increases risk for crowd migration to loiter if not managed
