#MUNICIPAL #GUIDANCE: Rutland

The town of Rutland will hold their annual town meeting on Monday Nov 19th, 6:30pm at Glenwood High School.

The town will vote on towns warrant articles regarding regulations around marijuana cultivators, manufacturers, independent testing laboratories, and retail establishments.

One article seeks to prohibit any marijuana cultivators, testing labs, product manufacturers and retailers from operating in town. The prohibition would come through a zoning bylaw change.

Another article would allow all types of non-medical marijuana uses including retail sales in certain zoning districts.

Voters will also be asked to consider allowing all types of non-medical marijuana uses except for retail sales in some zoning districts.

If voters decide to allow retail sales, another article will seek to put a 3 percent tax on marijuana products.

There will also be an article that prohibits by a general bylaw change all types of non-medical marijuana businesses in town.
