Hamilton City Council has ended a ban on retail cannabis that lasted for a decade. The city is now allowing its first marijuana dispensary. This change follows a council decision.

What we know

  • Cascade Southern Ohio's Uplift dispensary will set the one-mile buffer for other dispensaries in the city.
  • Two other dispensaries, GTI Ohio's Rise and Jushi's Beyond Hello, won council approval but cannot open if Uplift moves forward.
  • Uplift dispensary expects to create up to 45 jobs and serve around 400 customers daily.
  • The other two companies can reapply for a dispensary license if they choose to do so.
