China News: Special town meeting no go

by Mary Grow

The Jan. 28 special town meeting to let China residents act on an ordinance to create a moratorium on retail marijuana businesses in town could not be held for lack of a quorum.

China town meetings require 126 registered voters. With fewer than 100 assembled at 9:25 a.m., almost half an hour after the scheduled starting time, selectmen called off the meeting.

They will decide whether and if so when to present the idea to voters again.
