NJ marijuana legalization: Eatontown to set rules for weed in town
The first ordinance, which was introduced July 14 and will be voted on Wednesday, does not have the full support of the council. At least one objection is the ordinance is too restrictive because it would not allow retail cannabis businesses to open on Rt. 36 west of the Rt. 35 intersection.
Speaking Wednesday at a special council meeting called to discuss a compromise, Councilwoman Maria Escalante said she wouldn't vote for the measure unless all of Rt. 36 was open for retail cannabis.
