MARION With all of its permits now approved, the Board of Health on Feb. 2. is allowing occupancy to resume at the once condemned house at 464 Front Street.
The house was condemned when owner Lauren Fisher, 65, was arrested for two counts of animal cruelty, interfering with a police officer, and resisting arrest on Dec. 11, 2019.
Since then, the house remained unlivable. There were plans to demolish the building in mid-December, but the order was lifted on Jan. 20 after the board noted a significant improvement in conditions.
Marion Health Agent David Flaherty noted that following a recent inspection from the building commissioner, the house is “in very good shape.”

MARION More than a year after she was charged with animal cruelty, interfering with a police officer and resisting arrest, Marion resident Lauren Fisher left the Wareham District Court on Jan. 14 with a five-year probation and congruent ban on owning animals.
Fisher was arrested on Dec. 11, 2019, and her house on Front Street was condemned after it was found to be the site of years of animal abuse. At her disposition on Jan. 14, 2021, Fisher’s case was continued without a finding as a result of a plea deal.
