The Borough Council last month unanimously adopted an ordinance establishing cannabis licensing and regulations. The ordinance becomes effective 20 days after the council's July 22 vote.
Under the ordinance, anyone looking to operate a cannabis business in the borough must obtain a license in accordance with the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance and Marketplace Modernization Act.
Only two Class 5 cannabis retailer licenses will be allowed in the borough and will be limited to the town's general and highway business/commercial zones, under the ordinance.
In addition, two licenses will be allowed for cannabis cultivator, manufacturer, wholesaler, distributor and delivery in the borough, and the locations will be restricted to the light and heavy industrial zones.
