Dr. Erdos said there is no need to do that. Let us run this one for one month - you will get a different clientele at each clinic. Dr. Cosgrove said it would give Mr. Smith more work. The Board said they were not too crazy about the idea but they would be willing to do a "pilot program" for one month. Dr. Erdos said Mrs. Tapia's letter says the clinic would include the public. Mrs. Hluchyj said she had spoken with Mrs. Tapia and she wants to start with just employees. Mr. Smith told the Board he would like a nurse in the office for two hours a week to answer questions for the public. They could also give any makeup shots needed for people having missed clinics. Dr. Erdos said it was a good idea although he was not too enthuiastic about any of it. Mrs. Hluchji said the visiting nurses are looking for a volunteer nurse, perhaps a retired one, to help them out at their clinics. She said if anyone knew of anyone would they have them call the office. Mrs. Hluchyj brought up the "form letter" again that she had requested before to be sent to houses with reported communicable diseases letting them know that the visiting nurses would be coming. The Kazajian's of 113 Concord Avenue wrote a letter requesting to keep five KAZAJIAN horses on their property instead of three that their current permit allows. ANIMAL PERMIT Mr. Smith said he does not recommend the permit be allowed to be increased to five horses. He said they have three stalls, and two makeshift stalls. He also stated that there is a rat problem there. He said he has to go back there. As it is the barn could burn down. He siad it is "crummy". He said the horses are down in the swamp. He said it would be inhumane to put more horses over there. The Board denied the increase of horses on the property. Mr. Smith told the Board that the local Health Departments are no longer required to inspect nursing homes before they get their license renewals. He said he still inspects and licenses their kitchens. He said we have four basically good nursing homes here in Lexington and the Dana House is in excellent shape. Mr. Smith said that as he goes to the nursing home to inspect the kitchens he keeps his eyes open for other things. Mr. Smith said Woburn has allowed people to dump fill at the Winning Farm on the Lexington Line. The Lexington people have wells and are concerned what is being dumped. He said epople that work for the City of Woburn are also on the Board of Directors DUMPING at Winning Farm. The Board of Health and police in Woburn would not do anything. AT The State has forced the City of Woburn to stop dumping there. There is a "cease WINNING and desist" order against them. The D.E.Q.E. has an order against them and has FARM said to remove or prove what has been dumped there.
