Overview: The Carlisle Select Board meeting on July 14, 2026, tackled several issues, chief among them being the consideration of whether to opt out of the new state law that permits home delivery of marijuana. The law applies statewide unless a municipality explicitly chooses to opt out. Currently, Carlisle does not have a marijuana establishment, meaning the board must decide whether to apply for an opt-out waiver, which would delay the implementation of delivery services for two years. Concerns were raised about enforcement, with one member questioning how they would monitor deliveries.
