Although sixteen U.S. states and Washington, D.C. have legalized adult-use cannabis, numerous municipalities, towns and cities are declining to participate in their state’s legal marijuana programs. One of the results of these opt-outs is that residents needing or wanting cannabis are obliged to travel to surrounding areas to obtain it. Opt-outs, while nothing new, are impacting even major markets like California, where only 161 of the state’s 482 municipalities have chosen to join the adult-use program that began in 2019. In Michigan, over 500 towns have prohibited cannabis operations since the state voted to legalize in 2018. In addition, Detroit is involved in a lawsuit over a disputed 15-year residency stipulation for social equity applicants that could result in the Motor City saying no to cannabis sales.
