Information and Instructions
Massachusetts General Laws chapter 152 requires all employers to provide workers' compensation for their employees.
Pursuant to this statute,an employee is defined as"...every person in the service of another under any contract of hire,
express or implied,oral or written."
An employer is defined as"an individual,partnership,association,corporation or other legal entity,or any two or more
of the foregoing engaged in a joint enterprise,and including the legal representatives of a deceased employer,or the
receiver or trustee of an individual,partnership,association or other legal entity,employing employees. However the
owner of a dwelling house having not more than three apartments and who resides therein,or the occupant of the
dwelling house of another who employs persons to do maintenance,construction or repair work on such dwelling house
or on the grounds or building appurtenant thereto shall not because of such employment be deemed to be an employer."
MGL chapter 152,§25C(6)also states that"every state or local licensing agency shall withhold the issuance or
renewal of a license or permit to operate a business or to construct buildings in the commonwealth for any
applicant who has not produced acceptable evidence of compliance with the insurance coverage required."
Additionally,MGL chapter 152,§25C(7)states"Neither the commonwealth nor any of its political subdivisions shall
enter into any contract for the performance of public work until acceptable evidence of compliance with the insurance
requirements of this chapter have been presented to the contracting authority."

RE: Complaint trash/buiness
LOCUS: 78 Mulberry Street
A neighbor calls often on this property. Normally, the complaints concern the
appearance of the yard but have also included accusations that the owner is doing
automotive repairs for profit at this site and are using and dealing drugs. (This
information was forwarded to the BPD on several occasions for the street crimes unit for
the alleged drug activity. No feedback was provided to me regarding that issue).
Most recently,the neighbor called to complain that the residents of 78 Mulberry Street
were dismantling an RV in the driveway. They claimed debris was being blown all over
the neighborhood and into their yard. It was,they declared an unsightly mess.
The crux of this complaint really being about debris, I asked Health to drive by and take a
look. A couple of days later, I happened to go out with Tim O'Connell to another call
and we decided to drive by this property on our way back.
We found a barren chassis of an RV in the driveway but no loose debris anywhere. The
yard was relatively clean. There were auto parts and pieces in front of the frame and on
the other side of the fence by the garage but for the most part the property appearance
was improved since the last time I was there. Tim agreed with this assessment.
We spoke to the adult daughter who came outside to greet us with her Rottie, Moose.
She said they were planning to get rid the frame and would be continuing to clean the
yard. She also stated that they had taken great pains to insure that the debris from cutting
and dismantling the RV remained on site and did not blow off into the neighbor's yards.
At this point the issue was moot. Finding nothing to address at this time, we departed.

Subject: 78 Mulberry
Good Afternoon,
I got another call from the neighbors concerning 78 Mulberry Street(Dunlop). This is the property with the
exposed Tyvek on the front and numerous vehicles, RV and pieces of vehicles in the driveway and rear
yard. Their neighbors are absolutely livid. They told me that the property owner, Robert Dunlop"gets
away with whatever he wants". Dunlop is accused of repairing cars (for a profit) but works on them after
10 PM thru the wee hours. He disturbs the peace at unreasonable hours of the night and early morning
hours with his radio, tinkering and revving of engines He is also accused of"dealing large amounts of
coke" resulting in increased traffic on Mulberry Street.
Currently, Mr. Dunlop has a yellow vet(without headlights) in the driveway that he is races up and down
Mulberry -apparently to test repairs he has allegedly made. This"racing" is said to happen around
11 PM. The neighbor tells me that they have been suffering with this inconsiderate and illegal activity for
the last 5 years and no one has done anything about it. They are fearful of Mr. Dunlop and disturbed the
increased activity. They want something done.
At this point, I have to say that it has been very difficult for me to be able to prove Mr. Dunlop does
anything mechanical for a profit and not as a hobby although I do believe the accusations are true. I have
previously been informed that Mr. Dunlop is employed elsewhere so the repair use at this site would not
be his primary source of income -therefore there would likely be no records to trace.
I certainly understand why the neighbors are complaining. It is apparent that Mr. Dunlop continues-
to successfully walk a very fine line. Knowing this, I am prevented from obtaining enough evidence to
allow me to take him to court and obtain a favorable decision. I am hoping that if the drug activity is as
bad as the neighbors claim it is, available evidence would dictate an arrest warrant to be in order. This
action may appease the neighbors who are really so fed up. I have tried to quell their anger by reminding
them that it takes time to put a plan together, to monitor the activity and obtain the warrants (as
necessary) but I am afraid now that they are running out of patience. I am very concerned that with the
heightened level of frustration, higher temperatures, open windows and a few cocktails on the deck may
actually spawn some vigilante justice on Mulberry Street.
If you want to discuss this matter directly with the caller, I do have have their contact information. Please
let me know how to respond. They are looking for feedback from me and I am really at a loss (for the
moment) as to what to say to them.
Thank you.

Subject: Citizens Resource Line-78 Mulberry Street, Hyannis
Good Morning,
We received a call on the Citizen's Resource Line complaining about 78 Mulberry Street, Hyannis. The
caller is identifying a number of issues but most concerning is the alleged drug activity. The caller also
complaints of loud music at night and a number of unregistered cars at this property as well as an illegal
auto repair business being operated from this site. I am informed that BPD is quite familiarwith the
occupants and Officer Delaney has responded to.a couple of more.recent complaints made directly to the
BPD.
Can someone assess this complaint for referral to the drug task force and unregistered cars? Could you
please provide me with some feedback in order that I may advise the caller accordingly and plan my own
course of action? Thank you for assistance:

/ city wn nn t, �n "zip code
The current exemption for"homeowners"was extended to include owner-occupied dwellings of six units or less and
to allow homeowners to engage an individual for hire who does not possess a license,provided that the owner acts
as supervisor.
DEFINITION OF HOMEOWNER
Person(s)who owns a parcel of land on which he/she resides or intends to reside, on which there is,or is intended to
be,a one or two-family dwelling, attached or detached structures accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A
person who constructs more than one home in a two-year period shall not be considered a homeowner. Such
"homeowner"shall submit to the Building Official on a form acceptable to the Building Official,that he/she shall be
responsible for all such work performed under the building permit. (Section 109.1.1)
The undersigned"homeowner" assumes responsibility for compliance with the.State,Building Code and other
applicable codes,b s,rules regulations.
The unders-i ed"horn er" certifies that he/she understands the Town of Barnstable Building Department
min' inspec ' yy-eceduires an requirements and that he/she will comply with said procedures and
re a ents
S' a of Homeowner
Approval of Building Official
Note: Three-family dwellings containing 35,000 cubic feet or larger will be required to comply with the
State Building Code Section 127.0 Construction Control.
HOMEOWNER'S EXEMPTION
The Code states that: "Any homeowner performing work for which a building permit is required
shall be exempt from the provisions of this section(Section 109.1.1-Licensing of construction Supervisors);
provided that if the homeowner engages a person(s)for hire to do such work,that such Homeowner shall act
as supervisor."
Many homeowners who use this exemption are unaware that they are assuming the responsibilities of 4
a supervisor(see Appendix Q,Rules&Regulations for Licensing Construction Supervisors,Section 2.15)
This lack of awareness often results in serious problems,particularly when the homeowner hires unlicensed
persons. In this case,our Board cannot,proceed against the unlicensed person as it would with a licensed
Supervisor. The homeowner acting as Supervisor is ultimately responsible.
To ensure that the homeowner is fully aware of his/her responsibilities,many communities require,
as part of the permit application,that the homeowner certify that he/she understands the responsibilities of a
Supervisor. On the last page of this issue is a form currently used by several towns. You may care t amend
and adopt such a form/certification for use in your community.
