• JULY 1, 1932.
The Board of Appeals held a meeting at the Selectman's
Room, Town Office Building, at 8 P.M. Messrs. Maddlson,
Glynn, Custance, Baldrey and Slocum were present. The
Secretary was also present.
Bearing was declared open on the application of
Kenneth L. Durant for permission to establish a printing
plant on the premises owned by J. W. McLearn, 837 Mass.
Avenue.
The Clerk read the notice of the hearing.
Mr. Durant was present at the hearing, and explained
that he wanted to start a printing plant in the garage. It
would be a very small plant within 100 feet of the curbing
on Mass. Avenue. The work he intended to do would be done
in business hours except occasionally, but there would be
nothing that would disturb the public if he did work over-
time at night.
No persons appeared against the petition, and the
Board voted to pass the following order:
PERMIT.

The Board of Appeals, acting under+ General Laws,
Chapter 40, sec. 27, having received a written petition ad-
dressed to it by Kenneth L._Durant,a copy of which is hereto
annexed, held a public hearing thereon of which notice was
mailed to the petitioner and to the owners of all property
deemed by the Board to be affected thereby as they appear
on the most recent local tax list, and also advertised
in the Lexington Townsman, a newspaper published in
Lexington, which hearing was held in the Selectmen's Room,
in the Town Office Building on Friday the first day of
July, 1932 at 8:15 o'clock P.M.
All of the members of the Board of Appeals were
present at the hearing.
After hearing the evidence offered by the petitioner
and such other evidence as was offered, the Board in private
session at a meeting held July 1st, 1932, gave consideration
to the subject of the petition and a majority of the Board
voted that in its judgment the public convenience and welfare
will be substantially served by the use of the premises des-
cribed in the petition and that such use will not tend to
impair the status of the neighborhood.
The Board therefore determines that the application of
section 6 (a) in C.1 Districts of the Lexington Zoning
By-law permits the use of the premises described in the
petition, subject to the following conditions, and instructs
the Inspector of Buildings of Lexington to grant a permit
therefor.
The printing plant is to be located in the garage on
the premises #837 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, Mass.
and owned by J. W. McLearn, as at present located.
The Board therefore determines that the use of the
premises described in the petition is in harmony with the
general purposes and intent of the Lexington Zoning By-law.
