The Town of Lakeville Select Board approved several host community agreements for cannabis operations during its Nov. 25 meeting, covering both adult‑use and medical facilities in the Kenneth Welch and Millennium Drive industrial areas.
Town counsel (Nicole Costanza) summarized a five‑year HCA with Northeast Alternatives Inc. to govern adult‑use product manufacturing and indoor cultivation at 310 Kenneth Welch Drive; the company began indoor cultivation in October 2022 and holds a provisional product‑manufacturing license. The board approved the agreement by roll call.
Separately, the board approved a transfer and location change for a retail HCA to Twisted Growers Retail LLC for 8 Harding Street; the draft contains a 16‑month sunset clause requiring the company to return if it is not operational within that time, prescribed hours (8 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday–Saturday, 10 a.m.–6 p.m. Sunday), odor mitigation and dark‑sky lighting requirements.
The Select Board also approved a five‑year HCA for Twisted Growers LLC at 415 Millennium Drive for indoor cultivation and product manufacturing; staff said the company received final licenses and commenced operations in May and July 2024 under those licenses.
Finally, the board ratified a previously approved host community agreement with Bountiful Farms Inc. for a medical marijuana treatment center at 200 Kenneth Welch Drive; staff said earlier approvals occurred in January 2025 and prior years and that the ratification was a procedural step in open session.
All of the HCAs include standard provisions the board uses for cannabis agreements, such as indemnification, reporting requirements, odor mitigation, hours of operation, manager approval and nuisance mitigation. The motions to approve each agreement passed by roll call.
What happens next: Each agreement carries reporting and nuisance‑mitigation obligations; staff and counsel will monitor compliance and the town will enforce terms specified in the agreements.
