Local Government Compliance

The emergence of legalized medical marijuana in Pennsylvania has not enjoyed unanimous acceptance in the court of public opinion.  While some municipalities have been proactive and have enacted specific ordinances that address medical cannabis facilities, such municipalities remain the exception, not the rule.  As a result, in most cases a medical cannabis business must sort through the local regulations generally governing zoning, licensing, sales, revenue collection, and code enforcement, and must make a best effort to gain municipal approval and to comply with the code provisions.  

The attorneys of MacDonald Illig's Cannabis Practice Group have the knowledge and experience to guide your cannabis business through local government code provisions, as well as the relationships to work with any local municipality, to assure that local government compliance does not impede your business.
