BOARD or HEAL TIt
MINUTES or THE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 1975
SUBDIVISION - MILESTONE ACRES
Evaluations of Inspector of Health Purdy and Supt. of DPW Corcoran were read.
Report from Inspector of Health presented no problems, but the report from
DPW indicated more information is needed on water main size, plans for
increasing catch basin design laterals from 8" to 15", and suggested a final
review to make sure structural placement of dwellings as determined provides
for adequate lot drainage. Selectman Haley felt strongly that these matters
should be resolved before Board of Health approval given, and Board voted to
table the matter until potential problems could be resolved satisfactorily.
SUBDIVISION - HARRIET BACKUS
Report from Inspector of Health indicated that Lots 38,39 and 40 might present
problems installing septic systems because of ground water level and that no
potable water is available on individual lots in this area. DPW report showed
that results of percolation tests in this area were not supplied and topographi a1
elevations are missing on definitive plan. Selectman Haley made a motion to
table this also until more information is forthcoming.
Planning Board member Donald Visco commented to the Board that on both of the
above subdivisions the Board was supposed to act only on health matters and
not any pertaining to Planning Board jurisdiction. Board felt the matters for
which the two subdivisions were tabled were Board of Health matters and both
were tabled on that basis.
At a special meeting of the Board of Health at noon, September 2, 1975, it
was further voted to approve the Milestone Associates subdivision, with the
following notations: Supt. Corcoran informed the Board that the engineer,
John Shugrue, will make the necessary changes in pipe diameter and catch basin
design and Inspector of Health Purdy shall inspect at various stages of progres
to ensure compliance with sanitary systems.
On the Backus subdivision, approval was given with the following notations:
Supt. Corcoran informed the Board that he now has topographic maps and that
2-inch copper water line has been installed to the lots in question. He
recommended that a leaching field be used, instead of a pit. Inspector of Heal h,
Purdy, shall inspect at various stages of progress to ensure compliance with
sanitary systems.
