ORDINANCE# 9-0-2021
AN ORDINANCE BY THE BOROUGH OF WANAQUE IN PASSAIC COUNTY, NEW JERSEY PROHIBITING
THE OPERATION OF ALL CLASSES OF CANNABIS BUSINESSES WITHIN ITS GEOGRAPHICAL
BOUNDARIES AND AMENDING CHAPTER 114 OF THE CODE OF WANAQUE
WHEREAS, in 2020 New Jersey voters approved Public Question No. 1, which amended the New Jersey
Constitution to allow for the legalization of a controlled form of marijuana called “cannabis” for adults
at least 21 years of age; and
WHEREAS, on February 22, 2021, Governor Murphy signed into law P.L. 2021, c. 16, known as the
“New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Act” (the
“Act”), which legalizes the recreational use of marijuana by adults 21 years of age or older, and
establishes a comprehensive regulatory and licensing scheme for commercial recreational (adult use)
cannabis operations, use and possession; and
WHEREAS, the Act establishes six marketplace classes of licensed businesses, including:
• Class 1 Cannabis Cultivator license, for facilities involved in growing and cultivating
cannabis;
• Class 2 Cannabis Manufacturer license, for facilities involved in the manufacturing,
preparation, and packaging of cannabis items;
• Class 3 Cannabis Wholesaler license, for facilities involved in obtaining and selling
cannabis items for later resale by other licensees;
• Class 4 Cannabis Distributer license, for businesses involved in transporting cannabis
plants in bulk from on licensed cultivator to another licensed cultivator, or cannabis
items in bulk from any type of licensed cannabis business to another;
• Class 5 Cannabis Retailer license for locations at which cannabis items and related
supplies are sold to consumers; and
• Class 6 Cannabis Delivery license, for businesses providing courier services for consumer
purchases that are fulfilled by a licensed cannabis retailer in order to make deliveries of
the purchases items to a consumer, and which service would include the ability of a
consumer to make a purchase directly through the cannabis delivery service which
would be presented by the delivery service for fulfillment by a retailer and then
delivered to a consumer.
P a g e | 1 of 4BOROUGH OF WANAQUE
COUNTY OF PASSAIC
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
WHEREAS, section 31a of the Act authorizes municipalities by ordinance to adopt regulations
governing the number of cannabis establishments (defined in section 3 of the Act as “a cannabis
cultivator, a cannabis manufacturer, a cannabis wholesaler, or a cannabis retailer”), cannabis
distributors or cannabis delivery services allowed to operate within their boundaries, as well as the
location manner and times operation of such establishments, distributors or delivery services, and
establishing civil penalties for the violation of any such regulations; and
WHEREAS, section 31b of the Act authorizes municipalities by ordinance to prohibit the operation of
any one or more classes of cannabis establishments, distributors, or delivery services anywhere in the
municipality; and
WHEREAS, section 31b of the Act also stipulates, however, that any municipal regulation or prohibition
must be adopted within 180 days of the effective date of the Act (i.e., by August 22, 2021); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to section 31b of the Act, the failure to do so shall mean that for a period of five
years thereafter, the growing, cultivating, manufacturing, selling and reselling of cannabis and cannabis
items shall be permitted uses in all industrial zones, and the retail selling of cannabis items to
consumers shall be a conditional use in all commercial and retail zones; and
WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the initial and any subsequent five-year period following a failure to
enact local regulations or prohibitions, the municipality shall again have 180 days to adopt an
ordinance regulating or prohibiting cannabis businesses, but any such ordinance would be prospective
only and would not apply to any cannabis business already operating within the municipality; and
WHEREAS, the Borough Council of the Borough of Wanaque has determined that, due to present
uncertainties regarding the potential future impacts that allowing certain classes of cannabis business
might have on New Jersey municipalities in general, and on the Borough of Wanaque in particular, it is
at this time necessary and appropriate, and in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the
Borough of Wanaque’s residents and members of the public who visit, travel, or conduct business in
the Borough of Wanaque, to amend the Borough of Wanaque’s zoning regulations to prohibit certain
classes of cannabis business within the geographic boundaries of the Borough of Wanaque; and
WHEREAS, due to the complexity and novelty of the Act; the many areas of municipal law that are or
may be implicated in decisions as to whether or to what extent cannabis or medical cannabis should be
permitted for land use purposes or otherwise regulated in any particular municipality; and the
relatively short duration in which the Act would allow such decisions to be made before imposing an
automatic authorization of such uses in specified zoning districts subject to unspecified conditions, the
most prudent course of action for the Borough of Wanaque, would be to prohibit certain classes of
cannabis business within the Act’s 180-day period in order to ensure sufficient time to carefully review
all aspects of the Act and its impacts;
P a g e | 2 of 4BOROUGH OF WANAQUE
COUNTY OF PASSAIC
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED, by the Mayor and Borough Council of the Borough of Wanaque, in

• Class 6 Cannabis Delivery license, for businesses providing courier services for consumer

ORDINANCE OF THE BOROUGH OF WANAQUE, COUNTY OF PASSAIC, NEW JERSEY, AMENDING § 114-
3 OF THE CODE OF THE BOROUGH OF WANAQUE SO AS TO BETTER DEFINE THE TERM “DECK” AND
THEIR USE AND APPLICABILITY, INCLUDING AT ANY PROPERTY THAT IS A “NON-CONFORMING USE”
IN THE BUSINESS ZONE AS DEFINED IN THE BOROUGH CODE AT § 114-3.
WHEREAS, the Municipal Code of the Borough of Wanaque establishes the use and enjoyment of properties
within its boundaries, as established in Section 114-1 et seq of the Code entitled “Zoning”; and
WHEREAS, the Municipal Code at § 114-3 defines various terms to be utilized and interpreted when determining
compliance with the Borough’s Zoning Code, including the following:
“Deck”: An accessory structure consisting of a flat-floored roofless area adjoining a principal structure.
[Added 12-17-1991 by Ord. No. 26-0-91]
“Non-Conforming Use”: Any use lawful immediately prior to the enactment of this chapter which does not
conform to the provisions hereof”; and
WHEREAS, the Borough Zoning Code establishes a B Zoning District (Business Zone) § 114-12 which establishes
permitted primary uses within the B Zoning District, including but not limited to 1- “Retail sales, service and
eating establishments customarily found in and associated with contemporary centers of shopping and general
business…”, and 2- “Apartments over stores….” (although ground floor apartments are permitted though
limited); and
WHEREAS, the Borough Council has been requested to clarify whether Decks are a permitted accessory use in
the B zone, as the term Deck is defined above and as included in § 114-8 B (4), which is the applicable zoning
authority referenced at § 114-12 A 7 (c) pertaining to the residential use permitted in the B zoning district.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Wanaque as follows:
Section 1. The foregoing recitals (Whereas paragraphs) are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
Section 2. § 114-12 B (1) of the Borough Code stipulating “Permitted accessory uses” in the Business Zone
shall include Decks as hereinbefore defined so that § 114-12 B (1) is modified to read in full as
follows:
P a g e | 1 of 2BOROUGH OF WANAQUE
COUNTY OF PASSAIC
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
“Permitted accessory uses” shall be as follows:
(1) Uses and activities which are customarily associated with and necessary to the operation
and maintenance of the uses which are permitted above, including i. one Deck (and for clarity-
one patio area) per principal structure having no greater than 450 square feet of area and
provided said accessory use(s) comply with all yard setback standards, ii. one shed per structure
consistent with § 114-8 B (2), and iii. above ground pools not inconsistent with § 114-8 B (4).”
(Notes: 1-the italics represents the modified portion of the Borough Code, 2-§ 114-8 of the
Borough Code is the stated authority at § 114-12 B (7) (c) of the Borough Code pertaining to
residences in the B Zoning District.)
Section 3. Applicability. This Ordinance shall be applicable to any Non-Conforming Use or structure
situated in the B zone, as defined in Whereas #2 above. Because this Ordinance is intended to
clarify a pre-existing condition, it is therefore consistent with N.J.A.C. 19:4-6.1 (b) and any
related regulation pertaining to Non-Conforming Uses. If any part of this Ordinance shall be
deemed invalid, such parts shall be severed and the invalidity thereby shall not affect the
remaining parts of this Ordinance.
Section 4. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its adoption and any publication as
may be required by law.
