CloudHaven Dispensary at 1322 Gardner St. in South Beloit, is the city’s second marijuana dispensary. New legislation has been introduced in Wisconsin for the legalization of marijuana for adult use.
BELOIT — State Rep. Clinton Anderson, D-Beloit, joined Legislative Democrats to introduce legislation that will legalize and regulate cannabis for adult use in Wisconsin.
The bill (LRB-4219) would establish a comprehensive, state-regulated cannabis framework focused on consumer safety, public health and accountability, while ensuring Wisconsin benefits from the associated economic activity. Under the proposal, cannabis would be legal for adult use for both recreational and medical purposes.
“Nearly two-thirds of Wisconsinites support the full legalization of cannabis, and it’s time Wisconsin joins the growing number of states that have chosen to legalize and regulate it. In my hometown of Beloit, I see this reality every day as residents cross the border into South Beloit, Illinois, to visit legal dispensaries,” Representative Anderson said. “Those trips represent jobs, tax dollars, and economic activity leaving our state. Wisconsin shouldn’t keep falling behind. We should legalize cannabis for both medical and adult-use purposes in a responsible, well-regulated way.”
The Sunnyside Marijuana Dispensary, situated near Interstate 39/90 in South Beloit, opened in July of 2020. South Beloit’s second marijuana dispensary, Cloud Haven, opened about a year ago, in January of 2025.
