APRIL 29, 1986 Board of Health was held Tuesday, April 29, of the Town Office Building. Members present were: Dr. Donald A. Goldmann, Dr. Howard B. Asarkof, of Public Health and Jacqueline Selway, Sanitarian, Minutes of the March 25, 1986 Meeting did have a correction by Mr. Lambie. The clerk had reported that Collaborative Research had been given permission to do BL2 research. That sentence should be omitted and the following sentence should be inserted. "The Board reviewed the recommendation of the Biosafety Committee and approved their recommendation". A letter is to be sent to Collaborative Research in regard to their BL1 experiment approval. SANITARIAN'S Jacqueline Selway gave her report to the Board. She reported that she had REPORT attended a Neptune Benson pool seminar. It was about chemical processes of test- ing and pool operation. She had also chased down illegal vending machines. There was a complaint of rubbish dumping at 22 Lawrence Lane that she has been following up on. Jacqy reported that the septic system problem at Albermarle Avenue has been taken care of. She has caught up with all the permit inspections and is looking forward to going out and checking out all of the semi-public pools that will be going into operation for the summer season. Jacqy has also been learning, through Hanscom Air Base the military in- spection process. Mr. & Mrs. Cobuzzi came into the meeting because they had filed for an animal permit for one pony that is being kept at 106 Laconia Street. They had been keeping this pony without a permit because they were not aware that they had to have one. They do not have two acres of land and therefore would have to have a variance from the Board of Health. The Cobuzzi's presented letters and statements from all of their neighbors and also from the leader of the Woburn 4-H Club that this pony was not a problem to anyone and their daughter is getting real enjoyment in having this pony and being a member of the Woburn 4-H Club. The Board voted unanimously to allow this pony to stay on the premises of the Cobuzzi's property and granted them a permit. Seragen had been invited to come before the Board at 7:30 p.m. but they did not come into the Board Meeting. 1
