Another Cannabis Dispensary Coming To East Dubuque

East Dubuque City Council members have been updated about a planned cannabis dispensary set to open in the city this year. In July 2022, the council approved a special use permit for Portland, Oregon-based UHCC Inc. to construct an adult-use cannabis dispensary on Sinsinawa Avenue marking the city’s second dispensary after The Dispensary East Dubuque opened in May 2021. A report states that Dave Sendt and his wife, Janie, run Janvie Properties, which owns the buildings on Sinsinawa Avenue. Sendt told council members that Janvie Properties and UHCC, which will do business as Bridge City Collective, have entered into an official agreement for use of the property. He said Bridge City Collective will look to apply for required city permits in the next three to five weeks before beginning construction at the site, and the company plans to open the dispensary within six months.
