Community Town Hall Meeting on Illegal Smoke Shops Hosted by Assemblymember John Zaccaro Jr.

Neighbors and Community Partners,

I along with my colleague in the New York City Council will be hosting an important Town Hall meeting to address a growing and critical issue in our community.

Date: Wednesday, October 18th

Time: 6PM - 8PM

Location: Bronx House Community Center ( 990 Pelham Parkway South, BX, NY 10461)

Many of you have voiced concern about the increased number of smoke shops in our community and those who may be circumventing the law through the illegal sale of tobacco and cannabis products. Similarly, many neighbors have contacted my office about cannabis law and the legality of certain proposed cannabis locations that have applied for a license.

This is your time to ask questions and make your voice heard. Please join us on October 18th to hear directly from local officials, the New York City Sheriff's Department, and NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Together, these agencies are tasked with regulating the businesses that sell tobacco and cannabis products and will be available to field your questions and share their expertise.

For more information about this event and how to participate, please see the flyer below. 

Looking forward to seeing you on October 18th!

Your Neighbor,

John Zaccaro Jr. 

New York State Assemblymember, 80th Assembly District
