(WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Plans for a controversial cannabis farm in Joliet are being reworked.

It's back to the drawing board after a proposed cannabis facility off Manhattan road received negative reviews from Joliet Zoning Board of Appeals and plan Commission.

City council members will take a vote on rezoning and a special use permit during their meeting on June 7.
