Five of the 15 towns on Cape Cod plan to allow recreational marijuana stores now that it's legal in Massachusetts.
Four are on the Outer Cape: Provincetown, Truro, Wellfleet, and Eastham.
A subcommittee of the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission met Wednesday in Boston and is "inching closer" to licensing so-called "cannabis cafes" and home delivery of marijuana, according to an Associated Press report in the Worcester Telegram & Gazette.
The Public Safety and Community Mitigation Subcommittee's recommendations follow from the Cannabis Control Commission's "Equity Programs," found on the commission's web site, which seek to "redress the historic harm done" to people living in communities of disproportionate impact, "particularly Blacks and Latinos," who have been adversely affected by "state and federal policy."
