Hopewell Borough Council adopts opt-out ordinance for cannabis businesses
Hopewell Borough Council members have given the governing body time to determine if any classes of the cannabis business will be accepted in the borough.
The council adopted an opt-out ordinance to prohibit all classes of the business on May 6. However, there will not be any limits to the borough to opt-in by choosing to opt-out prior to Aug. 21 deadline set by the new cannabis laws.
Council President Charles Schuyler Morehouse, Councilman Chris Fossel, Councilman David Mackie and Councilwoman Samara McAuliffe voted “yes” on the ordinance during a virtual council meeting on May 6.
