KEEGO HARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Two Michigan communities have approved marijuana decriminalization proposals.

The Oakland Press, The Detroit News and WWJ-AM report the measure in Oakland County’s Keego Harbor was passed Tuesday by a vote of 260-210. It allows for the use, possession or transfer of up to one ounce of marijuana for people at 21 years old on private property.
