CAMPING: Letter from Rebecca Strauss informing Board of Health of intent to cam
of 30 people off the Surfside Road- on property belonging to Barbara and Peter
Malcolm of 23 Cliff Road, Nantucket, read. Ms. Strauss attached a map of the ar
with her letter, and said the campers would be arriving July 25 in time for her
wedding on July 27, and plan to depart July 28, 1980. Children are included.
Health Inspector Richard Ray's letter of recommendations concerning this Intent
read wherein he recommends that the Board deny permission for the following
reasons: Because of an expected large number of 30 campers, the area would then
come under the jurisdiction of Article 8 of the State Sanitary Code: Minimum
Standards For Deve10 ed Fami1 T e Cam Grounds. This camping situation would
V10 ate Sectlons and respectlve y: Sectlon : Four toilets needed. Apparent1
none available. Section 8: Two lavatories needed. Apparently none available. Wi
this number of people camping in such a small area without the above mentioned
facilities, a great amount of damage will be done to the area in question- both
environmentally and physically. Mr. Young motioned that the Health Inspector's
recommendations be accepted to deny, seconded by Mr. Gardner, so voted 4-0.
There being no further business before the Board of Health, a motion to adjourn
was made by Mr. Gardner, seconded by Mr. Knott, so voted 4-0.
