Commission approves home‑occupation permit for online thrift store Relic Revibe
Summary
The commission approved a special permit allowing Paula Jorski to operate Relic Revibe, an online thrift business at 133 Hallebert Avenue, with no retail foot traffic, a 140‑sq‑ft inventory room and USPS shipping arrangements; commissioners found the application met home‑occupation standards.
The Winchester Planning & Zoning Commission approved application PZC‑26‑7 on June 8, granting a special permit for a home‑based online retail business operating at 133 Hallebert Avenue.
Applicant Paula Jorski told the commission she and her daughter will run Relic Revibe as an online thrift store selling pre‑owned and vintage clothing and a limited selection of accessories. Jorski emphasized there will be no onsite retail traffic or signage and that inventory would be kept in a dedicated roughly 140‑square‑foot room (approximately 3.7% of the house). She said outbound shipping would be handled through a business account with the U.S. Postal Service and that, to start, she would personally take packages to the post office.
Commissioners asked about furniture sales and delivery logistics; Jorski confirmed there would be no furniture and no commercial pickup or delivery at the residence beyond normal household activity and arranged postal pickup if needed. After brief public inquiry and no public objections, a commissioner moved to approve and the motion was seconded; the commission voted in favor.
The approval carries standard conditions that the commission read into the record, including reliance on the applicant's representations and a clause allowing permit modification if information proves false or incomplete.
