Dorothy Jones, Clerk BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING DECEMBER 1, 1970 The regular meeting of the Board of Health was held Tuesday, December 1, 1970, at 7:00 P.M. in the Board of Health Office. Members present were: Dr. William Cosgrove, Chairman, Mr. James Lambie, Dr. Charles Ellicott and Robert Heustis, Director of Public Health. The minutes of the October 27, 1970 meeting were approved as read. Dr. Cosgrove and Mr. Lambie discussed the meeting on Fluoridation FLUORIDATION of the M.D.C. water supply, by the Mass. Citizens Committee for Dental Health with local Boards of Health and M.D.C. Commissioner John Sears and Dr. Frechette, Director of Massachusetts Public Health. They explained that both Commissioner Sears and Dr. Frechette were in favor of Fluoridation and they both agreed that the cost per town would be considerable less if fluoridation was done at the M.D.C. Station. Costs quoted at this meeting were $150,000. dollars if the M.D.C. added fluoride compared to 2 million dollars if fluoride is added by each town individually. Commissioner Sears will speak to Governor Sargent about a special budget appropriation for the purpose of adding fluoride to the M.D.C. water. This action would be based on how the majority of towns felt about fluoridation. This will take some time but it was the consensus of opinion that this would be the ideal way to initiate fluoridation. U" tv 004 1 1
