BOARD OF HEALTH
Minutes of Meeting December 4, 1985
The Board of Health meeting was called to order at 7:29 p.m. by Charles J.
Gardner. All members were present. Because the minutes from the October 30,
1985 meeting were unavailable, approval of said minutes was tabled until the
next meeting.
Richard Ray, Inspector of Health, appeared before the Board for "public rela- I
tions" purposes, to provide information to all food service establishments con-!
cerning the new Article X. Mr. Ray wished to publicly remind those establish- I
ments which will be open through January, that they must be inspected prior
to January 1, 1986. Mr. Ray stated that, although the state has continually
advised the establishments, through the mail, of regulation changes, copies of
the new Article X can be obtained through the Health Department, located in the'
Town Annex Building, for a minimal fee.
Mr. Rogers Cabot read a letter dated December 4, 1985, from Mr. Ray in refer-
ence to the complaint concerning the Piggery located on Eel Point Road. The
letter outlined a variety of Massachusetts General Laws, and Nantucket Zoning
Laws, 'which pertain to this type of complaint. However, his conclusion, based
'Ion the complaint, the noted Laws, and his inspections, is that the Piggery is
in comliance with all applicable codes and laws, and therefore, no public
I hearing would be required, in Mr. Ray's opinion.

Mr. Ron Bamber who had voice the complaint about the piggery, noted that he had!
spoken with state Health Representative Mr. Wayne Holmes, who had advised Mr.
Bamber that a public hearing would be required concerning this matter. Mr.
Bernard Grossman suggested that Town Counsel give a formal written opinion re-
garding this matter to the Board. Mr. Harry Clute moved that this matter be
tabled for one week pending the Town Counsel's opinion; seconded by Mr. Gross-
man; so moved.
There being no further business, the Board of Health adjourned at 7:50 p.m.
Paul J. Bergendahl, II
