There's still a lot of debate over legalized marijuana in New Jersey.

While all signs point to the eventual ok on recreational weed, some Monmouth and Ocean County towns are already saying 'no.'

New Jersey Advance Media made a very good point on regarding the towns that will ban legal pot.

If legalization does happen, these towns would not be able to prevent residents who are at least 21 year old from possessing small amounts of weed and using it in a private residence. But they can prevent marijuana businesses from growing and selling in their limits.

60 towns across the state have banned legal marijuana. Here are the towns in Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
