Orange considers allowing retail marijuana sales, with added regulation – New Haven Register
ORANGE — With the state’s legalization of recreational marijuana, the Town Plan & Zoning Commission is grappling with whether to prohibit the retail sale of the drug or create regulations to control it. They also have the option of doing nothing, which would allow sales in a retail zone without restrictions, but that was taken off the table. The planners, it appears, are leaning toward creating regulations for the sale of marijuana that might include signage and rules concerning proximity to certain establishments, such as schools and houses of worship. Selectman Mitch Goldblatt said he’s all for a pending measure…

Colorado Governor Urges Senators To Pass Marijuana Banking And Tax Reform Before Tackling Legalization – Marijuana Moment
Mexican lawmakers will again take up the issue of establishing rules for a regulated marijuana market in the new legislative session that begins on Wednesday, a top senator says. The country’s Supreme Court first deemed the prohibition on personal consumption and cultivation of cannabis for adults unconstitutional in 2018. Since then, there’s been an ongoing effort in the Congress to legislate on the issue—but lawmakers have repeatedly failed to meet court deadlines to end marijuana criminalization. The court took matters into its own hands in June and invalidated prohibition, without a regulatory scheme in place. Also that month, President Andrés…

Having spent the bulk of his career focused on what was going into the bottle of SoBe and other beverage brands, Norm Snyder found himself with a new problem last year after joining Reed’s — the bottles themselves, as shipment costs rocketed up 70 percent during the COVID-19 pandemic. That has Reed’s cranking out more cans these days of its “craft” sodas and mixers, given the tighter packing footprint they offer compared to bottles. Under Snyder, Reed’s is now preparing to expand its lineup of new “mocktail” mixers sold in cans. Reed’s sales totaled $11.3 million in the second quarter,…

Opinion: Applauding CT’s decision to legalize cannabis – Danbury News Times
Connecticut is the latest state to pass legislation authorizing adult recreational use of marijuana (about time!) and this should be cause to celebrate for our fellow Nutmeggers. In fact, according to the latest surveys, nearly two-thirds of Connecticut residents agree with this sentiment. The milestone vote by our lawmakers earlier this summer came amid a wave of recent Northeast state legalizations, including our neighbors in New Jersey and New York. Massachusetts has been ahead of the pack, legalizing cannabis in 2016 while Rhode Island, where pot is currently decriminalized, is expected to follow the path to legalization later this year….

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — Bill Stocker is not your typical marijuana reform advocate—he’s retired from the U.S. Marine Corps and the Sioux Falls police department. “I have 37 years in uniform, and I am a disabled veteran,” Stocker says. You might recognize Stocker from tv ads supporting Amendment A. That was the constitutional amendment legalizing hemp and marijuana. Stocker supported the ballot measure because he thinks law enforcement’s capacity is stretched too thin. He says officers should not focus on marijuana but on other drugs, South Dakota Public Broadcasting reported “Fentanyl is the problem, not marijuana,” Stocker says. Stocker…
