SLAUGHTER BEACH, Del. – The Slaughter Beach Town Council is set to review a proposed marijuana ordinance on Monday, potentially taking the next step in regulating cannabis within the community.
Town officials say the ordinance is designed to closely mirror regulations in Milford. In January, Milford’s City Council approved a zoning ordinance that bans recreational marijuana sales while continuing to allow the for medical marijuana dispensaries.
It has been nearly two years since Delaware legalized marijuana, yet many communities have put up roadblocks to the recreational sale of the drug. Georgetown is one of the few in Sussex County to approve it.
