Patricia Simeone said she owns a business that removes tattoos, performs medical tattoos, and replaces eyebrows. Her business falls under the beauty business category and she needs to have it listed as a permitted use and she is the only employee. The Building Inspector said she needed to get a Special Permit because there is nothing in the table of uses that lists her business exactly. Her services are closest to beauty services. Ms. Simeone has submitted her list of certificates to the Board of Health for review. She would like to open in September. This type of business is not regulated and needs to be approved on a town -by -town basis. There is at this time no legal licensure in the state of Massachusetts. Mr. Jarema wanted to know if these "similar to" types of businesses are registered at the Registry of Deeds and the Building Inspector said no. The Building Inspector said he would take the four or so cases to date and keep them in a folder for future review as Mr. Jarema thought there should be some time of record kept. Page 1 1 vouw m
