The operation of any marijuana establishment, as defined in MGL c. 94G, § 1, including, without limitation, a marijuana cultivator, marijuana testing facility, marijuana product manufacturer, marijuana retailer or any other type of licensed marijuana-related business, is prohibited in all zoning districts of the Town. This prohibition shall not apply to the sale, distribution or cultivation of marijuana for medical purposes licensed under Chapter 369 of the Acts of 2012.
[Added 4-30-2018 ATM by Art. 17]
3.5.1. 
Purpose. At the Massachusetts election held on November 8, 2016, the voters of the commonwealth approved a new law which, among other things, established MGL c. 94G, entitled "Regulation of the Use and Distribution of Marijuana Not Medically Prescribed." That statute permits "marijuana establishments" to be licensed by a new Cannabis Control Commission (the "Commission") throughout Massachusetts for the cultivation, testing, manufacture and sale of marijuana products. The Commission was initially to promulgate regulations concerning marijuana establishments by September 15, 2017, which date has been extended to March 15, 2018, by Chapter 351 of the Acts of 2016. The regulation of recreational marijuana raises many complex questions concerning law, planning and public safety. The Town cannot adequately address those questions until the Commission issues its regulations. The purpose of this temporary moratorium is to provide the Town time for study, reflection and decision concerning the said regulations and the challenges posed by recreational marijuana.
3.5.2. 
Temporary Moratorium. For the reasons set forth above and notwithstanding any other provision of the Zoning Bylaws to the contrary, the Town hereby adopts a temporary moratorium on the use of land or structures for a "marijuana establishment" as defined in MGL c. 94G, § 1. This moratorium shall not apply to the sale, distribution or cultivation of marijuana for medical purposes licensed under Chapter 369 of the Acts of 2012. The moratorium shall be in effect through December 31, 2018. During the moratorium period, the Town shall undertake a planning process to address the potential impacts of recreational marijuana on the Town, consider the regulations to be issued by the Commission, determine whether the Town should ban any or all types of marijuana establishments within the Town, decide whether to prohibit on-site consumption of marijuana products at marijuana establishments, and otherwise weigh its options in addressing the issues raised by recreational marijuana.
3.5.3. 
Severability. The provisions of this section are severable. If any provision, paragraph, subsection, sentence or clause hereof, or the application thereof to any person, establishment or circumstance, shall be held invalid or illegal, such invalidity or illegality shall not affect the other provisions hereof, or the application hereof to other persons, establishments or circumstances.
