Freeholders oppose legal marijuana, 3-2
The resolution passed Wednesday by a 3 to 2 vote, with Freeholder Deputy Director Sylvia Petillo and members Carl Lazzaro and Herb Yardley supporting the measure and Freeholder Director Jonathan Rose and member George Graham opposing it.
During a lengthy debate among the five-member board, issues such as marijuana's effects on the minds of users, especially young people, were mentioned repeatedly by those opposing legalization.
