Board of Health approves May minutes and three licenses; chicken-keeping license granted after inspections
Summary
The Revere Board of Health approved the May meeting minutes and granted three licenses during its August meeting: a body art individual practitioner license at 91 Hutchinson Street and a chicken‑keeping license for a resident at 64 Crescent Ave.; all motions passed by unanimous voice vote reported as three approvals.
The Revere Board of Health took formal actions on routine business and licenses during its August meeting, recording voice approvals for minutes and two licenses.
Approve May minutes: The board approved the minutes from the May meeting by voice vote. The record shows three affirmative approvals from board members Dr. Drew Bunker (chairperson), Kathleen Savage and Vivian Catano. No opposing votes or abstentions were recorded.
Body art individual practitioner license: The board recommended approval of an individual practitioner body-art license for an applicant associated with an existing establishment at 91 Hutchinson Street (Connection Beauty Spa). The inspection was conducted on Aug. 20 and the applicant passed inspection. The board voted to approve the individual practitioner license by voice vote; the record shows three affirmative approvals and no recorded objections. The transcript contains an unclear rendering of the applicant’s given name in the line “submitted by ties”; the applicant’s full name was not specified in clearer form in the transcript and is therefore recorded here as “not specified (transcript: 'ties')." The establishment address was provided as 91 Hutchinson Street.
Chicken-keeping license at 64 Crescent Ave.: The board approved a chicken-keeping license for a resident identified as Joseph (last name not specified in the transcript) at 64 Crescent Ave. Inspections documented that the applicant had three chickens and made required adjustments: feed and bedding in rodent‑proof containers, rodent‑proof composting, and expansion of the coop and run to meet the department’s dimension requirement of 10 square feet per chicken (30 square feet total). Minor outstanding items were noted but did not prevent approval. The board approved the license by voice vote with three affirmatives and no recorded opposition or abstentions.
