AI Summary

This bill amends Section 3(d) of Chapter 94G of the General Laws to limit the obligations that can be included in a host community agreement between a cannabis business and a municipality. Specifically, it states that no obligation beyond the payment of 3% of the gross sales of the cannabis establishment over five years shall be enforceable, and that intra-company transfers of cannabis from the municipality where it is produced to another municipality for retail sale shall not be counted as sales for the purpose of calculating the 3% payment. This bill aims to provide clarity and consistency around the financial obligations that can be included in these host community agreements.
