Upon advice of Dr. Wells, a former <br />president of the Middlesex County District Medical Association who <br />just happened in at the time of the meeting, a copy of this letter <br />from the Selectmen is to be sent to the present president of the <br />M.C.M.A., Dr. James Buckirk, Mt. Auburn Hospital, Cambridge, asking <br />for advice. There is a special investigating committee in.the <br />medical association to look into such complaints. <br />Another letter from the Selectmen asked for a re -consideration <br />of Lot on Crosby Road previously rejected by the Health Depart- <br />ment for private sewage disposal system because of high ground <br />water, impervious soil, etc. Mr. Lurvey checked again, and the <br />situation is the same. A letter notifying the Selectmen that this <br />lot cannot be approved has been sent to Mr. Maloney. <br />Mr. Lurvey recommended that a Child Care Center application <br />for a permit be approved for Mrs. Herbert Jacobs, 4 Diehl Road. <br />The Board voted approval provided recommendations by Mr. Lurvey <br />are carried out,and Board of Appeals permission is also granted. <br />Mr. Lurvey reported that Martin's Drug Store upon a recent <br />inspection was found in a very unsatisfactory condition, and a <br />letter was sent notifying the owner. The store has since been <br />closed. <br />The problem of an overflowing cesspool at 32 Clelland Road <br />(owner, Robert Roderick, Medalia, Ohio) is now corrected. Mr. <br />Roderick, upon notification of the nuisance, authorized the tenant <br />to have a new cesspool built, and the work is now completed. <br />Mr. McQuillan reported Mr. Carrig, Lawrence Lane, had asked <br />Aim about some lots in the area which had been rejected. The <br />Board agreed that the owner of this property should engage the <br />services of a registered engineer, and then if a solution is <br />obtained and is presented to the Board of Health for approval, <br />the Board would then have Whitman & Howard investigate this <br />solution. The Board would like a letter to be sent to Mr. Carrig <br />containing this decision. <br />At this June meeting a new Chairman of the Board df Health <br />is usually appointed. Because of the absence of Mr. Cole, the <br />Board would like to wait until the next meeting in hopes of a <br />full Board. <br />An application for a license to transport garbage was <br />approved for Capello Brothers, Inc., 36 Border Road, West Newton. <br />The latest bill from Whitman & Howard, Engineers, to May 23, <br />1958, $100.00, was approved by the Board. The budget standing <br />was discussed, and the Board felt the department is staying well <br />within the appropriation at this time. <br />1 <br />1 <br />
