2973-26 Cannabis Ordinance Revised (5.12).pdf

2973-26 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY This Ordinance, which amends the Cannabis Licensing Regulations of the Township, amends the permitted hours of operations for Licensed Cannabis Entities, to permit Licensed Cannabis Entities to operate only between the hours of Monday through Sundays from 8:00 a.m. through 10:00 p.m. This action is in response to a request for operating hours to be extended in the evening, which would bring the Township’s Regulations into alignment with the regulations of other nearby suburban Essex County municipalities. This action also brings the Township’s Regulations into alignment with the Township’s regulations concerning hours of operations for licensed alcohol retailers. For the avoidance of any doubt, this action does not affect Licensed Cannabis Cultivators or Licensed Cannabis Manufacturers, who, in accordance with Subsection 5-34.8(a), are not subject to these hours of operations, except that incoming or outgoing deliveries of any kind to Licensed Cannabis Cultivators or Licensed Cannabis Manufacturers shall only occur between the hours of 8:00 A.M. through 8:00 P.M.
