Lake success residents pack village hall after cannabis hearing is canceled

More than 40 residents packed Village Hall and spilled into the hallway Monday, evening, July 13, despite the Village of Lake Success having canceled a scheduled public hearing on a proposed cannabis zoning amendment five days earlier.

Many arrived carrying protest signs, setting the stage for a tense Board of Trustees meeting in which Mayor Adam Hoffman repeatedly struck his gavel to restore order as residents challenged village officials over the proposal.
