�r 3 Massage License: Helen Lynne Kent Blossomcrest Rd., Lexington Nursing Hage Approval: Hancock House Nursing Home Meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m. BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING FEBRUARY 2, 1976 The regular meeting of the Board of Health was held February 2, 1976 at 7:00 p.m. in Room G-15 of the Town Office Building. Members present were: Dr. William L. Cosgrove, Chairman; James W. Lambie, Dr. Charles Ellicott and George A. Smith, Director of Public Health. The minutes of the January 5, 1976 meeting were approved as typed. The application for permission to keep one horse at Krebs School, 453 ANIMAL PERMIT Concord Avenue, was discussed by the Board. At. 7:30 p.m. Jack Olson, KREBS SCHOOL representing Krebs School came into the meeting. Mr. Smith said that the original site of the stable and paddock had been changed and the new location, as he remembered, was not too flat and if this was used some grading would be required to make this area acceptable. A letter from one of the abuttors, Mr. & Mrs. Gough, raised the question of the suitability of the land for riding the pony. Also who would take care of the pony on weekends. Mr. Olson said that the site shown on the plot plan was not too hilly for the stable and paddock and it was a good distance from the Gym wall. Dr. Ellicott asked if the proposed site was fairly flat and Mr. Olson said it was. The Board pointed out that Mrs. Krebs must sign the application herself. Mr. Olson said the swampy land that Mr. Gough mentioned was on the other side of the property and the children were not allowed there, also the children were not allowed in the front of the building so he could not see where they would bother Mr. & Mrs. Gough. As far as saying that ponies were not as good natured as horses he did not feel a comparison could be made. The manure, as far as he knew, was to be stored in trash cans and then carted away. The food will be stored in metal containers. Mrs. Krebs does have someone on duty :at the school at all times so there will be someone there to take care of the pony. Mr. Smith asked about running water. Mr. Olson said there was outside spigots on the Gym wall and also there is a water line shown on the plans for the stable. Mr. Olson said he did not understand what the promises would be that Mrs. Krebs had not kept unless it was the fact that the construction trucks for the Gym were still coming into the property after the August deadline of the finish
