Dear Members of the Edison Council,

According to the ordinance mentioned above the residents opposed Cannabis businesses to be open now or in the future in Edison.

We the residents of Edison are petitioning to express our growing deep concerns about the potential impact of recreational cannabis on our children's well-being and overall community health and the image of Edison for raising our children safely.

Several studies have highlighted the adverse effects of cannabis use among individuals. The research underscores the increased risk of psychiatric disorders, including depression and suicidality, as well as detrimental impacts on academic performance and behavioral outcomes in teens who engage in casual cannabis use.

We the residents and taxpayers of Edison kindly urge the Edison council not to pass this ordinance to keep the reputation of the town as a safe place to raise the family.
Opposition to the ordinance Ordinance #O 2211-2024.

It is crucial to prioritize the well-being of our students and the residents.

This petition is signed by residents and is particularly timely, given the ongoing discussions around cannabis legalization and the potential impact on our educational environment.

Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated as a governing body.
From - Residents and taxpayers from Edison
