Cannabis businesses – from retail sales to the cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, wholesaling and delivery of cannabis – would be permitted to operate in selected areas of Lawrence Township, under an ordinance introduced by the Lawrence Township Council.
The ordinance was introduced at the Lawrence Township Council’s June 15 meeting. The council sought to get ahead of the Aug. 21 deadline to act, imposed by the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance and Marketplace Modernization Act.
A public hearing on the ordinance is set for the Lawrence Township Council’s July 20 meeting.
