DETROIT – Cities, townships and counties across Michigan are sharing $59.5 million in adult-use marijuana tax distributions from the 2022 fiscal year, the state treasury department announced Monday.
Eligible Michigan municipalities and counties will soon receive “more than $51,800 for every licensed retail store and microbusiness located within its jurisdiction,” the Michigan Department of Treasury said in a press release. More than $1.8 billion from adult-use marijuana sales were collected from 574 licensees throughout the state in 2022.
