Heard on NPR, this morning, and found an article in the local news:

Mid-Michigan business reacts to legalized sale of recreational marijuana

Mt. MORRIS TOWNSHIP (WJRT) (11/13/19) - The winter forecast may be windy and white, but come December, Michigan will become a lot more green.

An advisory bulletin was released Wednesday announcing recreational marijuana retailers can begin legally selling the drug in Michigan on Dec. 1.

Nearly 80% of Michigan communities are opting out of allowing recreational marijuana businesses within their borders, at least for now.

Not every medical marijuana business will be able to take advantage of the new regulations.

"The communities would get a portion of the tax revenues that would come in," said Brandi Rice-Simpson, the general manager at Light’N Up Provisioning and Microbuddery in Mt. Morris Township. "It would create a lot more jobs, considering that a lot of these facilities are going to see a lot more revenue."
