The Township Committee on Wednesday introduced two ordinances that would clear the way for recreational cannabis businesses within its borders.
A public hearing will be held on the ordinances before final passage during the next regular committee meeting at 5:30 p.m. July 21.
Any municipal regulation or prohibition on the operation of a legal adult cannabis recreational business must be adopted by Aug. 21, or the municipality will be subject to the laws of the state, which have not been made public yet.
“We have received no guidelines from the State of New Jersey,” Deputy Mayor Laura Pfrommer said about how the township should regulate legal recreational cannabis businesses.
