MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. (AP) — The Michigan Court of Appeals has blocked an effort to increase the number of marijuana businesses to 10 from three in a mid-Michigan college town.<\/p>\n
The question was headed to the November ballot in Mount Pleasant. But the appeals court agreed with opponents Monday and said petitions used to gather signatures had technical flaws.<\/p>\n
The city clerk was ordered to “immediately rescind her certification” of the ballot language to the Isabella County clerk.<\/p>\n
The campaign to expand the number of marijuana businesses came after unsuccessful challenges to how Mount Pleasant gave out its three licenses.<\/p>\n
Mount Pleasant, 70 miles north of Lansing, is the home of Central Michigan University.<\/p>\n
