• Jefferson Township Cannabis Decision Starting to Pay Off (tapinto.net) — Jefferson Township's decision to allow cannabis dispensaries is now bringing in tens of thousands of dollars in new tax revenue, easing local budget pressures. With two dispensaries open on Route 15 and more growth expected, officials say 2026 cannabis receipts could reach about $70,000, helping address long-standing revenue challenges tied to Highlands restrictions.
