NOTICE OF ADOPTION OF A LOCAL LAW BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF NASSAU SUBJECT TO A PERMISSIVE REFERENDUM

             PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on December 22, 2021, the Village Board of the Village of Nassau adopted a certain local law as follows:

A local law opting out of on-site cannabis consumption sites in the Village of Nassau as authorized under Cannabis Law Article 4.

The Cannabis Law of the State of New York adopted in 2021 authorizes the establishment of licensed dispensaries of cannabis, and also licensed on-site cannabis consumption sites within the State of New York. Pursuant to that law, municipalities, including villages, were given the option to opt out of the State licensing of facilities within their jurisdiction. By the local law adopted above, the Village of Nassau opted out of allowing on-site cannabis consumption sites from being established and operated within the jurisdiction of the Village of Nassau. Pursuant to that local law, the State Board will not license such facilities within the Village of Nassau.

The resolution adopting this local law is subject to a permissive referendum, pursuant to the provisions of the Village Law.

December 24, 2021                                                  Melissa Turner- Bulan

Nassau Village Clerk
