CAPE MAY – Cape May City Council June 15 adopted an ordinance banning all classes of cannabis establishments from the city.  

In doing so, the city joined many other county municipalities barring the emerging cannabis industry from setting up shop for cultivation, wholesale, distributor services, manufacture, retail and cannabis delivery services, unlike Lower Township, which recently put out a welcome mat for the industry by introducing an ordinance that would allow marijuana businesses.  

Cape May April 6 adopted an ordinance prohibiting the smoking or ingesting of cannabis products in public spaces (https://bit.ly/3u4w1Jl). In the November 2020 election, 63% of Cape May voters approved marijuana legalization.
