IN
SCHOOL The letters regarding a sewage problem at the nome of Dr.
Robert H. Wilkinson was read by the Board. Mr. iieustis explained
that this system is leaking onto tne surface of the ground and at
tnis time of year it was almost impossible to get the town or the
WILK1.6LONinstallers to do any extensive digging. Tne only reasonable sol -
SEWAGE ution to this problem was to connect to public sewer. Tne £louse
J'ttUBLEP`i is 35 years old and tne system is obsolete.
Dr. Cosgrove said there was nothing we could do except to eneck
and see that the nuisance was abated And as we have already
recommended connection to public sewer as soon as possible it was
out of our nands. Tne only thing he could see would be that Dr.
Wilkinson will nave to nave this system pumped frequently until
the weather permits the connection to public sewer.
Dr. Colburn said ne agreed and according to nis letter Dr.
Wilkinson nad tnis problem b montns ago when ne moved into the
house and waited until now to bring it to our attention.
