About the Data: Local governments may not opt out of retail sales. “Maryland counties and municipalities may establish reasonable zoning restrictions for cannabis licensees, but may not prohibit these facilities within their jurisdiction,” David Torres, deputy chief, Office of Communications and Outreach for the Maryland Cannabis Administration (MCA), told CBT. “The exception is for on-site consumption establishments, which a county or municipality may ban in their jurisdiction.”
