F. TRANSFER BUSINESS:
1. July 2016 Transfers — Record Nos. 37572 through 37628: The Commission
reviewed transfers for the period of July 1, 2016 through July 31, 2016.

exemption as first -time buyer of real property.
No. 37572 Bernard G. Boswell
2. "M" Exemption Update:
a. Five -Year Domicile Non - Compliance — Request for Waiver and Release of
Liens/No. 27318 Christopher Gallant and Annette Tremblay: Ms. Campese summarized the history
of the transfer. Mr. Cohen, attorney for the homeowner explained that due to permitting delays and
financial hardship his client was not able to build his house until 2012, six years after the "M"
exemption was claimed. He said his client then moved into the property but had a sale pending on
one of the houses as an "affordable" covenant house. He stated his client understands he was not in
compliance and would pay the fee and penalty when the house sold, but asked for relief from some
of the interest which was more than the fee and penalty combined. The Commission thanked Mr.
Cohen for his time and said they would take it under advisement.
