BRONSON, MI (WTVB) – The Bronson Planning Commission recommended on a 5-0 vote to the City Council during a special meeting and public hearing on Monday meeting that recreational marijuana facilities not be allowed in the city.
The City Council has the final say and they will now consider the Planning Commission’s negative recommendation.
After being presented with maps that showed at various buffer lengths which properties in the commercial and industrial district would be eligible for a recreational marijuana business, the Bronson City Council decided on August 12 to let the Planning Commission decide if the matter should be pursued further.
The maps showed which properties would be eligible for a marijuana business at buffers of 200, 500 and 1,000 feet.
Recreational marijuana in Bronson has been discussed at length for over a year.
Following its approval by Michigan voters in November of 2018, the Bronson City Council decided two months later to opt out. Communities in Michigan that opt-out can opt-in at any time.
