Agree or disagree, Lake County officials want to know what you think about allowing the sale of marijuana for recreational use in the unincorporated areas.
The adult use cannabis Web page was launched Thursday as a one-stop shop of information on the topic ahead of virtual public hearings April 19 and 21.
The sale and use of marijuana for adult recreational use became legal in Illinois on Jan. 1, 2020.
