BOURNE – After five attempts, Bourne voters at special town meeting Monday approved the recreational sale of marijuana in the town.
Article 15 was a citizen petition that lifted a ban approved in 2018, just months after voters initially approved recreational sales.
It’s been a contentious topic, with a similar article failing by just one vote in May.
Cannabis shop locations will still be limited by a special zoning district under the town’s Planning Board that was also approved at town meeting.
