Parachute, Colorado Grants Unanimous Approval of Zoned Properties' Development Plans for Licensed Marijuana Facility

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Dec. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Zoned Properties, Inc. (ZDPY), a strategic real estate development firm whose primary mission is to identify, develop, and lease sophisticated, safe, and sustainable properties in emerging industries, including the licensed marijuana industry, announced today that it received unanimous approval from the Town of Parachute, Colo. Board of Trustees for a Vested Property Rights Agreement to develop the first parcel of land at its Marijuana Business Park. The Vested Rights include multiple licensed marijuana uses and a variety of other mixed uses on the property.

Bryan McLaren, Chief Executive Officer of Zoned Properties, stated, "As we have discussed in the Company's business strategy, our team has worked closely with town leaders, local real estate professionals and regulators over the past year to develop a comprehensive, mutually agreeable plan that will benefit Zoned Properties, our future tenant operators, and the local municipality. Our development strategy has again been validated by another municipality's unanimous approval of a multi-year development deal; in this case a Vested Property Rights Agreement, which protects the zoning and permitting of the project for at least a five-year period. This milestone underscores the importance of building sustainable relationships and partnerships within each and every municipality. The achievement opens the door for tenant selection and construction to move forward in Parachute in 2017."

Town Manager, Stuart McArthur, stated, "The Town of Parachute is excited to see a Zoned Properties' development come to town. Their plans fit well within the economic plans for the community."

The company plans to continue soliciting and vetting prospective tenants for long-term leasing and operation of the developed facility. The company anticipates that the project will be expanded from the initial 1.5 acre parcel up to a possible 35 acres throughout the subdivided property in the coming years.
