The Township Council is again looking to ban recreational and medical marijuana shops as well as businesses that manufacture, sell or dispense weed-related paraphernalia from operating here.
The council unanimously approved an ordinance earlier this week that would amend the "prohibited uses" section in the land development code.
The ordinance would prohibit all classes of cannabis establishments, distributors and delivery services, whether for medicinal or recreational purposes, including those establishments that manufacture, sell or dispense cannabis related paraphernalia, from operating in the township.
The ordinance also says that marijuana or cannabis cultivation facilities, production or manufacturing facilities, testing facilities, wholesale or retail stores, dispensaries and delivery services, which are related to cannabis or marijuana for medical purposes, and such facilities or stores that manufacture, sell or dispense marijuana related paraphernalia for medical purposes, are prohibited from operating anywhere in the township.
