various stations.
Dr. Cosgrove said he had been requested to ask if there
were any regulations in town regarding the fencing of a water

Mr. Finneran said the Health Department had no such regula-
tion, and as far as he knew the Building Department had no such
ruling.

The letter to James E. Storer, president of the Moon Hill
Pool Association was read to the Board. Mr. Finneran reported
that under the present management this pool does not meet the
State Sanitary Code regarding chlorine residual, at this time
the chlorine is being hand fed into the pool. Early this
Spring he had recommended an injector system be added to the
recirculation equ;npment in order that a chlorine residual could
be maintained in the pool. This has not been done because Mr.
Harry Mimno, who has charge of the pool, has been against it.
The Board discussed this problem, and agreed that the Moon
Hill Association would have to cooperate with the Board of Health
and meet the requirements of the Sanitary Code, orithe permit to
operate the pool would have to be revoked.
The Board members were given copies of the report made to
the Town Government Structure Committee, and all agreed it was
a very complete and worthwhile report.
