Two Plympton stores fined for underage selling

July 5, 2024 By Deborah Anderson, Express Staff

PLYMPTON – June 13 compliance checks were conducted at Plympton Gas and Convenience (AARTI Corp) and Plympton Convenience and Liquor on Wednesday afternoon and both businesses were issued fines for selling tobacco to a 19-year-old male party without asking for ID or verifying age. The fines are in the amount of $1,000.00 and $2,000.00 respectively and are collected by the Town. The fines for selling tobacco to underage parties are $1,000.00 for the first offense, $2,000.00 for the second offense, and $3,000.00 for the third offense.
The Plympton Board of Health is a member of the Southern Plymouth County Public Health Excellence Collaborative, a group comprised of the Carver, Duxbury, Kingston, Plymouth, Plympton, and Wareham Boards of Health. The purpose of the Collaborative is to facilitate cross-jurisdictional sharing of public health services and is funded through a state grant for shared services. This grant has made it possible for the Plympton Board of Health to have these compliance checks done bi-annually without a direct personnel cost to the town.
The Public Health Excellence Collaborative program has also provided the town with other public health related services without a cost to the town residents. This includes a public health nurse that holds a wellness clinic on the first and third Wednesdays of the month in the COA office. Cholesterol and/or blood sugar checks are also available on the first Wednesday of the month. On the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month the nurse holds an Educational/Ask A Nurse Session in the Deborah Sampson
