North Adams Expands Pot Regs To Include Medicinal Facilities

The Berkshire Eagle reports tweaks to the city's ordinances for licensed marijuana establishments have expanded the regulations to include medical marijuana establishments.

The changes, approved by the Planning Board last week and now headed to the City Council for final approval, reflect the disparity between the draft regulations introduced by the state Cannabis Control Commission and what it ultimately enacted.

The revisions, made under the guidance of the Berkshire Regional Planning Commission, do not change the intent and substance of the ordinance.

The adjustments include tweaking language so that the regulations apply to both recreational and medical marijuana establishments and place a limit of one medical marijuana establishment citywide.
