The Board reviewed the minutes of August 8, 2007. MacKenzie motioned to accept the minutes as corrected. Thompson seconded. All approved. The Board reviewed the August data reports and Public Health Nurse Reports. The BOH prompted Fox on a number of issues: ?? Fox advised the Board of Via Lago’s plan to install new refrigeration upstairs in mid- October to hold sandwiches before transporting. They recently submitted a plan to Fox. Tabbi will inspect Via Lago after refrigeration units have been installed to make sure they are following the plan. Fox will prepare a plan before spring for all caterers to follow. The caterers will submit documentation to Fox as to how they are transporting food and what are they using to keep the food at proper temperature. Fox will check their delivery vehicles. ?? Fox will inspect Lemon Grass this month and check filtration system to see no impact from Battle Green demolition. Vinny T’s had already been inspected before demo took place. ?? Fox will get a list to the Fire Chief of all “high grease-using” restaurants to alert the fire department of potential hazards. Judy Crocker submitted a letter to the Board expressing concern for the safety and welfare of the children at the Harrington Elementary School with the proposed storage and operation of DPW vehicles on the Harrington School campus. Prior to the meeting, Ms. Crocker was informed by the DPW Director, William Hadley, that the vehicles will not be stored at the facility. With the passing of the anti-idling bylaw, Heiger-Bernays would like education for municipal vehicles to be a high priority. In addition, Heiger- Bernays asked Crocker whether the Hg storage shed was still located on the Harrington premises after Fox had been told that it would be removed. It is still located at the school and should be moved as it poses an attractive nuisance.
