AI Summary

This bill seeks to encourage transparency in host community agreements for cannabis establishments. It amends existing law to require that cannabis establishments document their annual community impact fees by March 15 of the succeeding year. The bill also allows for an independent audit of these costs, and if the fees collected exceed the actual costs imposed on the city or town, the difference must be rebated to the establishment. Additionally, failure by the city or town to properly document the costs may result in a civil action to compel the necessary documentation.
