The Borough of Madison has received an application from 1st Choice Health & Wellness, LLC for a permit to operate a medicinal cannabis dispensary at 340 Main Street (the office building next to Lukoil Gas Station). The applicant has previously been issued a license by the State of New Jersey to operate a facility, but a local license is also required.
