MASSENA – Village officials will be encouraging the public to voice their opinions on how the Board of Trustees should regulate cannabis businesses.
Mayor Tim Ahlfeld said Trustee Matt Lebire has been putting together a fact sheet on the new law. It legalizes cannabis possession and use for ages 21 and up, and also allows for commercial cannabis sales starting next year.
“The legislation is thousands of pages long. And then you’ve got different groups that have looked at it, like the New York Conference of Mayors and so on. They’ve put it in more of a readable format for non-attorney types,” Ahlfeld said.
