all those owners of property deemed by the Board to be afFected thereby, and to the public by posting

The Petitioner is Mary Galvin who, fittingly, resides at 25 Gingerbread Lane, YazmouthPort, MA,
properry located in an R-40 Zoning District. The Petitioner seeks relief (Variance) under g202.5 to
allow for her food prepazation within her home for sale at other locations.
To say that the Petitioner channed the Boazd members would be an understatement. She made a fine
presentation of her desire to engage in an in-home business of making Gluten Free Cookie Dough and
provided samples of her finished product which each Board member enjoyed.
The Petitioner was benefited by having obtained a ServeSafe food handling certificate and was to be
issued a license by the Boazd of Health. In addition, the Boazd had several letters endorsing the
proposal.
No one spoke in opposition to the requested relief. No exhibits were received (save for the cookie
samples which the Board members ate).
T'he Boazd members concurred that the requested relief was reasonable and that the Variance relating
to the use table restricdons (By-law §202.5) should be granted. A Motion was made by Mr. Igoe,
seconded by Ms. Martin to grant the relief as requested and without condition. On this Motion, the
Boazd voted»nan;mously in favor and the Variance was,therefore, granted.
