Roseland

The Borough Council adopted an ordinance by a 4-1 vote to prohibit the operation of any class of cannabis businesses within the borough at its July 27 meeting. Councilman Roger Freda did not support the ordinance.

Four medicinal marijuana advocates addressed the Roseland Borough Council on Tuesday to question the recent adoption of an ordinance that prohibits the sale, dispensing and manufacturing of medical marijuana within the borough.

None of the speakers were residents of the borough, but all of them had reason to believe the borough should reconsider the ordinance that was passed in October 2019.
