We the undersigned residents and friends of the Sunnyside and Surrounding Neighborhoods of Northwest Denver respectfully request that you consider our position against the proposal of extended hours for marijuana shops. We believe that extended hours will negatively affect the residents who live nearby these shops with increased traffic congestion late in the evening, inability to park in front of our homes, blocked driveways, noisy patrons, as well as creating unconducive environments for children who live nearby. Based on quality of life issues during business hours, we feel that it would be detrimental to residents to have these hours be extended. Please consider the residents who live nearby these shops before passing this measure.

The city council continues to dodge our emails while ignoring the obvious strain these shops already place on our streets. I am currently gathering logs of late night activity to prove exactly how much this expansion will ruin our neighborhood. They want to force this on us quietly but we are not going anywhere.

The city council cannot ignore this surge of opposition from people who actually live here. We have built enough momentum to prove that our quality of life is not up for negotiation.

It seems that many neighbors and most neighborhoods would be affected since we have plenty of pot shops in Northwest Denver. I think extended hours would be much too intrusive for folks who live close by.
There are 3 shops at clay and 38th within 100 feet of each other. Extended hours will make a congested area during the day unbearable at night.
I was opposed to legal marijuana and am opposed to any neighbor smoking/growing it as it STINKS UP MY YARD...for sure opposed to longer retail hours.
We voted for legalization of marijuana dispensaries in Colorado. With that includes legal and responsible use of products. Any business which disrupts the quality of life in our neighborhoods MUST be responsible to ALL neighbors affected by business activities.
No, the traffic is horrible! Even on Sunday mornings they are gathering!
No extended hours for pot shops!!!
I oppose pot shops staying open till midnight. Thanks

I have a home on a corner lot and can't begin to count how many stoned and/or drunk drivers have almost hit my house in Highland these past 25 years. Parking and congestion continues to be a huge problem throughout the city and extending hours to these shops is a negative impact to what is a normal, child friendly neighborhood. I voted against Amendment 64 knowing it would increase crime and intrusion on my lungs publicly.
