Here’s hoping candidates remove all signs of this campaign soon after polls close at 7PM Primary Election Day.

Non-Binding Proposition on Ballot

Shall the City of Naperville, in light of state legislation legalizing the possession, consumption, and sale of recreational adult use cannabis, allow the sale of recreational adult use cannabis within its jurisdiction?

A la luz de la legislación estatal que legaliza la posesión, el consumo y la venta de cannabis para uso recreativo en adultos, ¿debería la ciudad de Naperville permitir la venta de cannabis para uso recreativo en adultos dentro de su jurisdicción?

Will you vote to Opt In with a “Yes” vote or Opt Out with a “No” vote?

Here’s a little history: In September 2019, Naperville City Council members voted not to permit the sale of recreational adult-use cannabis within its jurisdiction. Yet at its October 15, 2019 meeting, the Naperville City Council voted 6-3 to adopt a resolution establishing an adult-use cannabis referendum on the March 17, 2020, ballot, saying they will trust the will of the voters with a question on the Primary Election Ballot.

Here’s what nonbinding means: Non-binding means this question is an advisory referendum intended to gauge public opinion and guide future discussions by the City Council. The nonbinding results can be interpreted to mean if voters support staying the course without recreational cannabis sales in Naperville, no council action will be necessary. But if the majority of voters say “yes” to wanting to allow local recreational cannabis sales, the council would have the option to reverse its ban and then set zoning regulations for any adult-use recreational cannabis dispensing centers. (Note that a medical cannabis dispensing organization currently is available in Naperville.)
