Williamstown, Massachusetts has approved a special zoning permit for marijuana-related businesses in town. 

Williamstown had debated whether to completely ban marijuana businesses in town.

Instead, at the annual town meeting last week, Williamstown opted to require a special permit to zone businesses that are involved in marijuana sales, production or testing.

Marijuana companies will be restricted to two designated business districts.
