No, said Mr. Lambie, "808" is only for zoning. The Board of Health has a right to revoke a permit if the conditions on the property are not kept up as the regulations specify. The three Board members told Mrs. smoske her application for a permit is denied to keep two horses on her property. Mrs. Smoske stated as she left the meeting that she is going to the Board of Appeals. Mr. Smith told the Board that after revoking Mrs. Smoske's permit a year and a half ago, he had spoken with her attorney and told him what Mrs. Smoske would have to do to have her permit re -instated. He told her attorney at the time that Mrs. Smoske should go to her neighbors and ask them to give her a chance and state to them what she planned to do. Mrs. Freier said she tried to approach the Smoske's about what they could do but there just was no reaching them. Mrs. Johannsen said there were times that Mrs. Smoske had some violations and they didn't call because the Smoske's were neighbors but she said the situation became unbearable. Mrs. Johannsen said she doesn't think Mrs. Smoske feels she has a problem there and she cannot be reached at all. Mr. Smith told the Board that each Spring a letter is sent to all animal owners stating what should be done after the Winter to clean up. Some read it and abide by it and others just throw it away and do nothing. Mr. & Mrs. Freier and Mr. & Mrs. Johannsen thanked the Board for listening to them and retired. At 8:30 p.m. Mrs. Joan Melcher, Coordinator of the Council on Aging came before the Board. Mr. Joseph Rooney, President of the C.O.A. accompanied Mrs. Melcher to the Board meeting. Mrs. Melcher told the Board that the Council on Aging would like to have one of the "elderly blood pressure clinics" at the C.O.A. headquarters once a month. She told the Board that they would prefer a Thursday, but not the last Thursday of the month. On Thursdays, they have a congregate meal and around 50 or 55 people attend. This would be a good time to check blood pressures. Dr. Cosgrove told Mrs. Bea Phair of the Town Manager's Office when he had a meeting with her that he saw no need to add a clinic as he felt we had given plenty of opportunity to the residents to get their pressure checked with all the clinics that were now available. Dr. Cosgrove said it was his suggestion to take one of the clinics away from the villages if the Council on Aging felt it would be better there. Mr. Rooney, through the Council on Aging, had requested to have an appointment with the Board at their regular meeting. A letter was sent to Mr. Rooney, in care of the Council on Aging, stating a time the Board would meet with him. Mr. Rooney did not appear at the meeting and later stated that he had never received the letter.
