Members present werel. Dr. William Cosgrove, <br />Chairman; Mr. James Lambie, Dr. Michael S. Erdos and George A. Smith, Director <br />of Public Health. <br />The proposed Budget for 1980 was discussed by the Board. Dr. Cosgrove <br />explained that he had received a letter from Town Manager instructing the <br />Board to cut the 1980 budgets by 10%. He went on to say that the expense <br />account could be cut by 10% but there was no way the personnel service budget <br />could be cut. Dr. Cosgrove said the budget had been submitted with state- <br />ments of what effect a 10% decrease would mean to departments. With it he had <br />also sent a note stating the Board would not consider a wage cut for personnel. <br />The Board members were given copies of the budgets as submitted and any <br />questions will be discussed at the next meeting. <br />The letter to the Board members from Dr. Manfred Friedman regarding the <br />Board'suppomt his request to stop spraying for mosquitoes except in health <br />emergencies. <br />After some discussion Mr. Smith said that Dr. Friedman should be talking <br />to Paul Mazerall, Park Department, because mosquito spraying is in his budget. <br />The Board discussed the spraying program for mosquitoes and Mr. Lambie <br />said he would like to see some proff that the spraying program was effective. <br />Mr. Smith said Mr. Moran of East Middlesex Mosquito Control had sent a <br />letter stating the effect & testing that the spraying had on mosquitoes in <br />the Cedar Street and Spring Street area. <br />Mr. Smith said that East Middlesex Mosquito Control was trying to please <br />all the Conservationists and the residents of the area, by using a mild <br />fogging material. It is effective for a short period of time. He went on <br />to say that stronger chemicals were available but they are not being used <br />because of opposition from conservationists. <br />Dr. Cosgrove reviewed the mosquito control budget which has been decreased <br />from $18,000 dollars to $8000 dollars. <br />
