Commission records trace how the business took shape. The February 20, 2019 background and application-of-intent review addresses the proposed marijuana establishment and the license type sought, and notes the application was reopened twice for additional information. A later Commission document posted on masscannabiscontrol.com lists the Jackson Street address and names TCI Investors, LLC and Community Growers Partnership, LLC among entities having direct or indirect control. It records that the applicant and the municipality executed a Host Community Agreement on June 23, 2021, and that the Commission received a municipal response from Worcester on February 9, 2022 stating the applicant was in compliance with local ordinances or bylaws. That filing set out goals rather than results: hiring targets covering past or present Worcester residents, Economic Empowerment Priority applicants and Social Equity Program participants, plus a proposed goal of contracting with at least 30% of its suppliers, contractors and wholesale partners.
