County Board Votes To Raise Tax On Recreational Weed

The increase approved by the county Tuesday is the maximum now allowed by the state. Presently, the state has offered no timeline as to when any business in Wabash County would be allowed to sell recreational pot legally. Most assume it could be years down the road.
