Our goals will be as follows: <br />1) Working towards one or more community impact goals offered at My Green Network or <br />outside of MyGN to benefit the City of Santa Ana Community; and <br />2) To remain in compliance and follow all sustainable business practices within the My Green <br />Network facility. <br />We will appoint a founding member of our company to act as a community liaison to the City of <br />Santa Ana. The community liaison will be the primary point of contact for any questions related <br />to our business and will be accessible via phone, email, and social media. In addition, we intend <br />to report as much of our efforts as possible to My Green Network in order to provide a larger <br />impact as a community of cannabis operators due to our limited resources individually. <br />The following categories represent the ways in which we believe we can contribute to making a <br />positive impact to the City of Santa Ana. <br />Hiring Local to Santa Ana <br />As an Operator in Santa Ana, we will make best efforts to hire local Santa Ana residents. As a <br />small business, we understand the benefits of sourcing talent locally to drive down our costs and <br />build a stronger connection with the local community. <br />
