Bill > H108

This bill aims to address equity in the cannabis industry. It proposes that host community agreements (HCAs) entered into before August 11, 2022 cannot be reviewed or challenged if the host impact fees do not exceed 3% of gross sales for the first 5 years of the agreement. This is a deviation from the existing Chapter 94G of the General Laws, which governs the cannabis industry in Massachusetts. The goal of this bill is to provide stability and certainty for cannabis businesses that have already entered into HCAs, while also ensuring that the host impact fees remain reasonable and do not unduly burden the industry.
