Fair Lawn Opts Out of Marijuana Sales, Growth, Distribution Within Borders
The borough has opted out of the marijuana business, at least for now.
The Council approved the total opt-out on August 17 after previously considering allowing wholesalers to operate within the borough.
Charles Cohen, a Plymouth Drive resident, said the council made a "wise" decision "at this time." He noted the Food and Drug Administration has called cannabis a "highly addictive drug," that can cause "cognitive" issues.
