Oxford Township backs Oxford Valley Farm LLC's application for Class 1 cannabis cultivation and Class 2 manufacturing
Summary
On Dec. 4 the Township Committee unanimously adopted Resolution 2024‑145 supporting Oxford Valley Farm LLC's application to the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission for a Class 1 cultivator and Class 2 manufacturer at Block 34 Lot 2, citing local ordinance and state law.
The Oxford Township Committee unanimously voted Dec. 4 to endorse Oxford Valley Farm LLC’s application for state licensure to operate a Class 1 cannabis cultivation facility and Class 2 cannabis manufacturing operations at Block 34 Lot 2.
Resolution 2024‑145 cites the state’s Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Act (the CREAMM Act) and Oxford’s Ordinance 2021‑10, which the resolution says permits Class 1 cultivators and Class 2 manufacturers in township zoning where allowed. The resolution states the township does not limit the number of such licensees and expresses municipal support for Oxford Valley Farm LLC’s application to the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission, subject to applicable state and local statutes, rules and ordinances.
The motion was moved by Committee member Georgette Miller and seconded by Linda Koufodontes; recorded vote was 3–0 in favor. The resolution directs that the endorsement is consistent with local ordinances and applicable state law; it does not itself issue any licenses or preempt state regulatory review. The committee did not record public comment specifically on this resolution at the meeting.
What to watch
- Oxford Valley Farm LLC must obtain state licensure from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission before any cultivation or manufacturing activity can begin. - The township’s endorsement may be submitted as part of the company’s application materials; state review and any required municipal approvals or conditions (e.g., site plan, local code compliance) remain separate steps.
Provenance
The resolution was read and adopted on the record (SEG 006–007) with motion by Georgette Miller and second by Linda Koufodontes.
