Fair Lawn Borough has adopted a local cannabis ordinance addressing the siting of cannabis establishments, restricting most license classes from operating in the borough while regulating any permitted classes through zoning and buffer requirements.
Following New Jersey's adult-use cannabis legalization, Fair Lawn passed a local ordinance under its zoning and licensing authority addressing the six classes of cannabis businesses. The borough opted out of permitting most classes of cannabis establishments within municipal boundaries, with limited exceptions. Where any class is permitted, businesses must comply with buffer distances from schools, parks, and houses of worship, plus standard site plan and zoning approval through the planning board.
Operating an unauthorized cannabis establishment exposes the operator to municipal fines, daily penalties, injunctive relief, and revocation of any local license or zoning approval.
