SPRINGFIELD -- The City Council voted Monday to set a cap of no more than 15 shops that will be allowed to sell recreational marijuana in Springfield but continued to debate regulations including the specifics of where the shops can be located.

During a four-hour meeting on Monday, the council decided that marijuana shops must be located on a specific list of allowed streets, and only in a Business A, B, and C zone, or on specific streets in an Industrial A or Industrial Park zone.
