Glynn County Implements New Kratom Ordinance

In a significant move, Glynn County has introduced a new ordinance that changes how kratom is sold within its jurisdiction. As reported by The Brunswick News, the Glynn County Commission has now mandated that all merchants must sell kratom from behind the counter, rather than displaying it openly in stores. This decision marks a notable shift in the regulation of kratom, a substance that has been the subject of much debate due to its opioid-like effects and potential for misuse. The ordinance aims to regulate the sale of kratom more stringently, reflecting growing concerns about its impact on public health and safety. The move by Glynn County could set a precedent for other jurisdictions grappling with the challenges posed by the sale and use of kratom.
