Two local elected officials are urging colleagues to join the growing conversation about expanding access to legalized recreational marijuana.
Not yet, they said in response.
Councilmen Lou Signorino and Michael Hensley voiced support for a planned discussion on a draft resolution to support the legalization, taxation and regulation of marijuana for adult use in New Jersey in April.
Other council members approved the discussion. The topic, though, has since fallen off the council’s to-do list, officials said.
“When there is a better understanding of the direction that may be forthcoming from our state legislators, we will probably bring the matter back to the dais,” said Antoinette Battaglia, township administrator.
