Woolwich committee approves letter of support for proposed outdoor medical cannabis grow on Oldmans Creek Road
Summary
The Woolwich Township Committee voted Feb. 2 to prepare a letter of support for Alliance Corporation’s state application to establish an outdoor medical-grade cannabis cultivation site at 2250 Oldmans Creek Road. The applicant said state rules cap outdoor cultivation at three acres; the application will return to the committee for further review.
The Woolwich Township Committee on Feb. 2 voted to create a letter of support for Alliance Corporation’s application to the State of New Jersey to establish an outdoor medical-grade cannabis cultivation facility at 2250 Oldmans Creek Road (Maugeri Brothers Land Holding LLC). Srini Rao, CEO of Alliance Corporation, and Joe McNally presented the proposal to the committee.
During the presentation, Committeewoman Williams asked whether the cultivation acreage could be expanded in the future. The applicant said the three-acre limit is mandated by the state and cannot be expanded. Mayor Matthias told the committee that Woolwich currently holds two cannabis class one licenses (one full license and one micro license) and that this application would seek the township’s third class one license.
Under New Business the committee moved to create a letter of support for the state application; the motion was made by Williams, seconded by Mayor Matthias and carried unanimously. The committee clarified that the licensing application will return to the Township Committee for further action and not to the joint land use board, which handles land-use approvals.
The committee did not take a final land-use vote or approve any licensing documents at the Feb. 2 meeting; the letter of support is an early, procedural step toward a state application and further local review.
