WAYNE All sales of marijuana are forbidden within local limits under a new measure supported this week by drug-control advocates and the township s top law enforcement officer.
But some critics of the zoning law, adopted by the governing body in an 8-1 vote, argued that such a ban would inconvenience a vulnerable segment of the population: those who take the drug as medicine.
At a virtual public hearing that began Wednesday and ended after midnight, callers from across the state admonished the Township Council for putting the sick and dying further back in line.
Among them was Edward Lefty Grimes, an activist from East Hanover.
