The City of Richmond Heights will have Proposition M on the ballot this April.

"Shall the City of Richmond Heights impose a local retail sales tax of three percent (3%) on all tangible retail sales of adult-use, recreational marijuana sold in the City." 

A "YES" vote will impose a three percent (3%) sales tax on adult-use, 
recreational marijuana purchases made within Richmond Heights. 
A "NO" vote will not impose a 3% sales tax on adult-use, recreational marijuana purchases made within Richmond Heights.
It is estimated that 3% tax on these sales would generate about $150,000 annually for the City.
St. Louis County Prop M - The County’s measure does NOT apply within city limits, only to recreational marijuana sales within unincorporated St. Louis County. 
Update February 21, 2023: Due to differing translations of Article XIV, voters will decide if the 3% taxes may be stacked by St. Louis County and municipalities.
