PLYMOUTH - You come home from a hard day at work and want to relax. Do you knock back a few beers or smoke some weed? You opt for marijuana. However, much to your dismay, you find you’re out of pot. What to do? Just pick up the phone and call for a delivery.

That scenario could play out in Plymouth if state regulators approve a license for Philip Smith of Taunton. He wants to operate a home-delivery service of marijuana products in conjunction with Eagle Eyes Transport Inc., a registered cannabis transport company in Plymouth.

Raphael Richter, president and COO of Eagle Eyes Transport, requested a conditional community host agreement with the Select Board Tuesday for Smith, who was unable to attend the meeting. Smith’s company, tentatively titled Mr. Smith’s Delivery-Only Company, will arrange to pick up and deliver cannabis products from a licensed marijuana retailer to a registered qualifying medical patient or consumer anywhere in the state.

Smith, who is a disabled veteran, is the co-owner of Freshly Baked Co., a wholesale producer of cannabis-infused edible products in Taunton.

According to Richter, the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission recognizes Smith as a social equity program participant, which means he meets all the requirements to work in the industry. Eagle Eyes Transport will work closely to assist with the start up of the new business.

"Our company will provide advisory support," he said. "The home-delivery service will operate from our secured facility in Plymouth."

Richter stated that Eagle Eyes Transport provides transportation services of marijuana products and materials between companies operating in the legal cannabis industry, and thus can offer consulting as well as rental of its secured facility for the new business.

Plymouth stands to profit from the service if approved. The proposed community host agreement states the town will receive 25 cents for each delivery in Massachusetts. That fee jumps to 75 cents if delivery is made within Plymouth.

In addition, the plan calls for the new company to make an annual donation of $5,000 in sponsorships to local groups. Richter said the company would also be hiring local people for well-paid jobs with benefits.

Board members questioned some of the details of the proposal, including delivery and security. Richter said deliveries would only be made to pre-verified patients or consumers, who must produce valid identification to receive the product. He also said no products would be left if no one can receive it and any undeliverable items would be stored in a vault at Eagle Eyes Transport.

Board member Betty Cavacco asked about the cost of delivery of cannabis products and the particulars of how that would be handled.

"It’s not cheap," Richter replied. "Average price is between $15 and $40, depending on distance and the amount of product. The state requires two employees to be in the truck for deliveries."

Richter said a conditional community host agreement was needed for White to proceed with his license application with the Cannabis Control Commission. He also needs a special permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals.

Select Board Chairman Ken Tavares and Cavacco voiced disapproval for the proposal. "I think we need more guidelines here," Tavares said. "And I don’t understand why the applicant isn’t here to present his case."

The Select Board approved the conditional agreement by a vote of 3-2 but required White to return for negotiations for a final contract if and when his license is granted by the state.
