Traverse County’s Board of Commissioners adopted an Ordinance Regulating Tetrahydrocannabinol Businesses after a recommendation from the Planning Commission and approved a related Interim Use Permit to allow cannabis cultivation and manufacturing in an existing 3,200‑square‑foot building in the Agricultural Zoning District.
