On Monday the Ocean City Council conducted the first reading of a proposal to modify the town’s cannabis laws. The new regulations would extend the operating hours for cannabis shops from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m., an increase from the current 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. schedule. The proposed changes also include restrictions on store locations, mandating that no cannabis shop can be situated within 500 feet of schools, places of worship, or public parks.
