Concerned residents have contacted Local 4, questioning why a city that’s less that three square miles is home to 36 marijuana business licenses. On Hamilton Avenue -- where most people see blight -- the Highland Park City Council sees an opportunity for prosperity. The city council recently approved an ordinance that allows Highland park to participate in recreational and medical marijuana businesses. City council president Carlton Clyburn says that the 36 marijuana licenses don’t necessarily mean that 36 marijuana businesses will suddenly flood the town.
