Wilton passes adult use marijuana moratorium

1 min read

WILTON – A moratorium passed by voters at a special town meeting Tuesday night will put a hold on any further permitting processes for adult use marijuana facilities.

The town approved the addition of marijuana establishments into the commercial zoning ordinance at this summer’s town meeting, but those changes did not include any other detail as far as permits, fees and licensing.

The 180-day moratorium will not impact businesses already established, Town Manager Rhonda Irish said Wednesday.

The town’s Planning Board will discuss the moratorium and the state rules for adult use marijuana at Thursday’s meeting.

  1. Good move, Wilton’s bustling business scene is overflowing, no room for new businesses in Wilton. Especially businesses with large taxable streams of revenue, no need for those.

  2. If a business, any business that pays taxes and wages falls out of the sky into Wilton, help them out, your few surviving taxpayers need it.
