Oxford Township Committee unanimously backs four cannabis facility license applications
Summary
The Township Committee of Oxford unanimously adopted resolutions supporting four separate Class 1 cultivator and Class 2 manufacturer license applications for properties at Block 24 Lot 20 and Block 34 Lot 2, citing state law (CREAMM Act) and local Ordinance 2021-10; all motions were moved by Deputy Mayor Georgette Miller and seconded by Linda Koufodontes.
Oxford Township Committee voted unanimously Feb. 4 to endorse four separate state license applications for cannabis cultivation and manufacturing facilities, adopting a series of resolutions that support applicants Beefy Greens, LLC; Deo's Garden, LLC; Luckey Buds, LLC; and Gassius, LLC.
Deputy Mayor Georgette Miller moved each resolution and Linda Koufodontes seconded; each passed by roll call vote with three ayes, no nays and no abstentions. The resolutions state that the Township "supports and endorses" the applicants’ filings with the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (CRC) and cite the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Act (the CREAMM Act, N.J.S.A. § 24:61-31 et seq.) and Oxford Ordinance 2021-10 as the governing authorities.
Resolution 2026-34 endorses Beefy Greens, LLC’s application for Class 1 (cultivator) and Class 2 (manufacturer) operations at Block 24, Lot 20; Resolution 2026-35 endorses Deo’s Garden, LLC at the same Block and Lot; Resolution 2026-36 endorses Luckey Buds, LLC for Block 34, Lot 2; and Resolution 2026-37 endorses Gassius, LLC for Block 34, Lot 2. Each resolution repeats that Ordinance 2021-10 permits the specified license types and "does not limit the number of Class 1 Cannabis Cultivator and Class 2 Cannabis Manufacturer licensees within the Township of Oxford."
The Township’s resolutions are municipal endorsements of the applicants’ state licensure efforts; they do not grant operating permits or state licenses. The resolutions make clear the next step for each applicant is to obtain CRC approval and comply with state and local regulations. The texts also state the siting and operation must be "subject to, and in accordance with, all applicable ordinances" of the Township.
Clerk Lee Geller recorded the resolutions in the meeting record. There was no separate public comment recorded on the cannabis items during the meeting.
The committee did not place a numerical cap on cannabis licensees; the resolutions state the Township has "authorized the operation" of the listed license classes and "does not limit the number of licensed cannabis businesses that may operate within the Township." The resolutions do not specify operating hours, local conditions, or community benefits agreements; those matters would be addressed in subsequent permit reviews or conditions imposed by the CRC or local approvals if required.
What happens next: each applicant must complete the CRC application process and meet applicable state licensing conditions. The municipal resolutions will be part of each applicant’s CRC submission but do not themselves constitute state licensure.
