Lincoln Park’s two cannabis retailers will be able to relocate from an industrial section of the city to major thoroughfares.
The City Council voted 4-3 on Monday, Jan. 26 to amend a city ordinance, allowing the businesses to relocate to the municipal business district, which consists of heavily traversed areas of Dix Highway, Southfield Road and Fort Street.
The council held a public hearing before the vote, with representatives for the two businesses and several other people speaking in favor of the ordinance amendment.
Voters approved a measure in 2019 that allowed cannabis retailers in the city, although it put a limit of two such businesses in the city.
By a 5-2 vote last year, the city’s Planning Commission recommended the council approve the amendment.
