<br />Lexington Board of Health Meeting, March 9, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. <br />Cary Hall, Estabrook Hall <br />1605 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, MA <br /> <br />Attendees: Sharon MacKenzie, Chair; Deborah Thompson; Burt Perlmutter; Judith <br />Feldman <br /> <br />Health Department Attendee: Gerard F. Cody, Health Director; Ann Belliveau, Health <br />Clerk <br /> <br />MacKenzie called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. <br /> <br />The Board reviewed the minutes of February 9, 2009. Perlmutter motioned to accept the <br />minutes with corrections. Thompson seconded. All approved. <br /> <br />The Board reviewed the Community Health Updates prepared by the Public Health <br />Nurse, David Neylon. Cody explained that Neylon is attending a 2009 Strategic National <br />Stockpile Training Summit in Atlanta, GA from March 10-12, 2009. <br /> <br />Food Code Compliance Program – Teppanyaki Update – Sam Wong informed the Board <br />that during the second inspection last weekend, he observed considerable improvement. <br />There were no critical violations but there were some non-critical violations from <br />probably bad habits. Wong said the staff seems eager to do the best they can. Cody <br />recommended continuing with a few more inspections and work on the HACCP Plan <br />which needs to be reviewed and approved by the Board of Health. Wong said the Sushi <br />Chef is doing what he needs to do so now is the time to revise the HACCP Plan which <br />will be easier to do. MacKenzie asked if the reports are being faxed to Cody. Cody has <br />received one report so far and the others will be faxed to him. Cody asked Wong if he <br />has noticed any physical problems with establishment, such as stained ceiling tiles <br />because of water coming in from the roof. Mr. Wong had no comment at this time. <br /> <br />The Board reviewed the February food inspections. <br /> <br />Housing Code Compliance Program Update – 437 Waltham Street <br />Since no one is living at the house, Cody cannot enter the house to conduct an inspection. <br />Cody said he was given permission from the neighbor next door to make observations <br />from their property. Since a dead raccoon was visible, Cody hired a contractor to remove <br />the animal and the invoice amount will be attached as a lien on the property. A neighbor, <br />Mr. Kachadoorian has keys to the property and wishes to make all the repairs at no <br />charge. He probably will be attending the April meeting. He stores some of his property <br />in the garage and has assumed a custodial role. Cody said the home could be condemned <br />at this meeting or next month based on outside observations. Cody feels Mr. <br />Kachadoorian will plead not to condemn but he has no legal entity to the property. <br />Critter Control has provided a quote to do further boarding up of the building and Cody is <br />waiting on two other quotes. <br /> <br />Cody advised the Board of a recent dumpster complaint behind 1734 Massachusetts <br />Avenue. The snow had been plowed around the dumpster causing the debris around the <br />dumpster to be frozen. An order letter was sent to the owner of the property along with a <br />fine. The owner of the property left a message that he received the letter. <br /> <br /> <br />
