I need to have certain taxonomies set to enable only only selection. How would I accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

This is not possible within WordPress itself.

Hierarchical taxonomies will always allow the Editor to choose many Terms.
Tags, wich are flat, are sort of what you need, but also here, the Editor always can assign as many as needed.

In CRED this would be possible.
There you can add 2 attributes to your ShortCode that displays the Taxonomy Term Select Field.
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/cred-shortcodes/ > cred_field

The attributes are select='true' and single_select='true'
