Madison Approves Moratorium Against Medical Marijuana Facilities

The moratorium is in effect for nine months.

The Madison Planning and Zoning Commission voted to enact a moratorium against medical marijuana producers and dispensary facilities for at least the next nine months, effective July 25.

The reason for this moratorium is to allow the P&Z Commission to evaluate any impacts of the recently permitted producers and dispensary facilities throughout Connecticut and to draft and/or adopt municipal regulations regarding the production and distribution of medical marijuana within the Town of Madison, meeting minutes state. The expiration date of said Moratorium will be April 24, 2015.
