A Central New York town has opted to temporarily ban retail marijuana sales until its residents weigh in on the issue this fall.
The six-member Camillus Town Board voted unanimously to opt for now. In November, town officials will present voters with a referendum asking residents if the town should opt out of state legislation that allows retail pot shops
Addressing concerns from residents who attended this week s meeting about clear language that doesn t lead to confusion in the voting booth, the town s attorney - Dirk Oudemool - assured voters the referendum would be clear, the outlet reports:
“Our referendum has to be in the form of requesting the Cannabis Control Board to prohibit the establishment of retail dispensary licenses and on-site consumption licenses in the Town of Camillus, outside the Village of Camillus,” Oudemool explained.
