We took a look at the financial impact of adult-use marijuana in our neighborhoodsClinton County’s lone licensed dispensary brought over $59,000 in tax revenue

The only adult-use cannabis dispensary in Clinton County received more than $59,000. So far commissioners haven’t discussed what to do with the funds, according to a county official.
