Bill > H4367

This bill amends the existing law in Massachusetts to regulate host community agreements between municipalities and marijuana establishments or medical marijuana treatment centers. The key provisions are: 1. A marijuana establishment or medical marijuana treatment center seeking to operate in a municipality must execute an agreement with the host community, which can include a community impact fee of up to 3% of the establishment's gross sales for up to 5 years, to cover the costs imposed on the municipality by the operation of the establishment. 2. The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission is granted the authority to review, regulate, and enforce all host community agreements. 3. The Commission is required to promulgate regulations to carry out the provisions regarding host community agreements, including criteria for calculating community impact fees.
