Matawan council takes another step toward permitting cannabis businesses
The members of the Matawan Borough Council have adopted an ordinance that establishes an application procedure and licensing fees for cannabis related businesses.
During a meeting on June 9, council members voted unanimously to adopt the ordinance.
Borough Administrator Scott Carew explained that in New Jersey, an individual or an entity that seeks to operate a cannabis business is required to receive an endorsement from the municipality in which it seeks to operate.
