Long Branch Plans To Give Out 6 Cannabis Business Licenses
While some New Jersey towns are pushing back against legal marijuana sales — mostly by passing town ordinances that forbid local pot shops from opening — the city of Long Branch welcomes the industry.
The city also plans to allow a retail pot shop to open near the Long Branch train station.
Few other New Jersey towns plan to give out as many licenses as Long Branch will, setting the city up to be a hub for taxable marijuana business in the Garden State.
