MIDDLETOWN – It is illegal to sell cannabis products in the City of Middletown and the common council has amended the city code to reflect that.
Alderman Jerry Kleiner said modifying the code makes it more enforceable.
“We opted out in Middletown of allowing cannabis sales. That’s state law and this gives us a much better way to enforce the law locally so that we are able to bring people to court and protect the city,” he said.
The local law does not prohibit people from using cannabis within the city, but dispensaries may not be established for the sale of the products.
