HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.—Voters will decide in November whether to legalize the sale of marijuana in the city and tax it.

The city council voted 5–2 on July 5 to revive a ballot measure to tax cannabis businesses, which received 64 percent voter approval in June, but still failed to reach the two-thirds majority it needed.
