Members present were Chairman, Mr. <br />R.L. McQuillan, Mr. Charles Cole and Health Officer, Mark D. <br />Lurvey. <br />Minutes of the February meeting were accepted as read. <br />Mr. Simmons, owner of house lots 14 and 14B (to be used <br />14&14B as one) on Hazel Road, came before the Board to ask permission <br />HAZEL RD. to install a. private disposal system on this lot. The public <br />sewer is within 200 feet of this lot on Winter Street but be- <br />cause of the amount of ledge on Hazel Road it would be very <br />difficult to install a public sewer line to this property. <br />Mr. Cole asked if Mr. Simmons had an engineer's report on <br />this lot. Mr. Simmons said he had not but that he had dug a <br />number of holes on the lot and found it easy digging. <br />Mr. Cole asked if any of the other houses on Hazel Road <br />were connected to public sewer. Mr. Lurvey said no they had <br />private disposal systems as the public sewer had not been <br />available at the time the houses were built. <br />After a short discussion the Board agreed that if Mr. <br />Simmons would dig a hole with a machine at least 7 feet deep <br />and 4 feet wide in the approximate location of where the septic <br />tank would go so Mr. Lurvey could see the type of soil on this <br />lot and also another hole at least 3 feet deep and 1 foot wide <br />so that a percolation test could be made then a definite de- <br />cision could be made by the Board. The Board explained to Mr. <br />Simmons that until these tests were made by Mr. Lurvey and more <br />information about this lot was received they could not agree to <br />a private sanitary system to be installed on this property. <br />Mr. Simmons said he would get those holes dug and call Mr. <br />Lurvey as soon as he was ready. Mr. Simmons thanked the Board <br />and retired. <br />LEGAL SEA Mrs. Stanley Berkowitz, wife of the owner of the Legal <br />FOOD Sea Food Market, came before the Board at Mr. Lurvey's request. <br />Mr. Lurvey explained to the Board that upon his inspection this <br />month he found the Legal Sea Food Market in violation of a num <br />ber of things and was very disturbed because the score of this <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
