Constantine Village embraces medical marijuana facilities
The Constantine Village Council approved 11 medical marijuana facilities last year. The village near the Indiana border has about 2,000 residents. One provisioning center is near approval and another soon after. The Green Guild owner expects state inspection and rigorous testing, with security rules and a $5,000 annual facility fee. Pending state permits, officials anticipate revenue and potential police staffing gains. Recreational marijuana discussions may follow.

Michiganwide marijuana legalization creates rules and concerns
As Michigan legalizes recreational use, residents may possess up to 2 ounces and grow 12 plants at home. Officials plan licensing rules next year, while counties report no local dispensaries yet and focus on underage access and impaired driving. Border areas worry about cross state travel and crime shifts. Public safety leaders urge case by case guidance until regulations finalize.
