The Issue

As a resident living merely 40 feet from the Alpine Agronomy facility located at 245 Broadway in the Village of Saranac Lake, my family and I have been subjected to distressing health effects due to the inadequately ventilated emissions from cannabis cultivation. This facility is alarmingly close to a public park—a place where children play carefree—as well as our residential neighborhood, the Family Civic Center, and bustling shopping areas. It's disheartening to see the adverse impact on our community's health and well-being.

The pungent odors and potentially harmful toxins being dispersed by Alpine Agronomy have become more than just a nuisance; they are a threat to the quality of life in our beloved village. Residents, including myself, have reported symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and respiratory issues. Our once tranquil environment is now overshadowed by concern and discomfort.

This pressing situation necessitates immediate action from the Village of Saranac Lake. We urge the Village to implement stringent regulations and enforce proper ventilation systems for Alpine Agronomy to prevent any continued discomfort and potential health risks to residents and visitors.

Evidence from various studies suggests that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and terpenes released during cannabis cultivation can affect air quality and health. These compounds must be effectively filtered and managed to comply with public health standards.

Our community deserves the right to live in a healthy, odor-free environment. By addressing these issues promptly, the Village of Saranac Lake can restore safety and tranquility for all its residents and visitors. It is time to put the well-being of our citizens above all else.

We call on Saranac Lake officials to act swiftly in enforcing necessary changes at Alpine Agronomy. Your signature is crucial in holding the facility accountable and ensuring a safer future for our community. Please sign this petition and help us safeguard public health and maintain the charm of our village. Together, we can make a difference.
