BOARD OP HEALTH MEETING
JANUARY 5, 1976
The regular meeting of the Board of Health was held Monday, January
5, 1976 at 7:00 P.M. in Rood G-15 of the Town Office Building. Members
present were: Dr. William L. Cosgrove, Chairman: James W. Lambie, Dr.
Charles E. Ellicott and George A. Smith, Director of Public Health.
The minutes of the December 1, 1975 meeting were approved as typed.
Minutes of the meetings with Mr. 'Cannell and the School Health Depart-
ment Personnel regarding perdiculosis in the schools were also discussed.
Dr. Cosgrove explained to Mr. Lambie that the meeting with the
School Health Personnel was very worthwhile. After discussing the cases
of pediculosis in the schools for some time it was agreed that the school
nurses would be the deciding person on whether the child may return to
school after the treatment for pediculosis was carried out.
The clerk was instructed to contact the School Nurse Supervisor,
Miss Newhall, and see if they had revised the requirements of treat-
ment for pediculosis.
Mr. Smith reported that Dr. Yudowitz, Wild Acre Inn, 50 Percy Rd.,
had sent a letter to the Board of Health after our last meeting assuring
the Board that he would contact the selectmen and follow through on our
requests to correct the problem of over -flowing septic system.
Dr. Yduowitz has petitioned the Board of Selectmen to lower the
existing sewer lines now in the street. After a short discussion the
Board agreed that no action could be taken on this matter at the present
time.

Mr. Smith reported that Mr. Freeman, developer of Bi -centennial Estates
had put in two septic tanks to service the house. The only problem being
that he did not have these tanks connected until he was threatened with an
order to vacate the house. He then had a plumber connect the tanks and this
work was not done right. Mr. Smith said he asked Mr. Freeman if he had BI-CENNTENIAL
obtained all his plumbing permits and etc. to do this work. Mr. Freeman ESTATES
assured him he had and told him the work would be done. When the plumbing
was done it was not right and it was then discovered that no permits had been
obtained. At the present time Mr. Freeman is in trouble with the Inspection
Department for not having the required permits for the work he had done.
Mr. Smith went on to say that if the Board recalled at the last meeting
Mr. Freeman was given two weeks to clean up the barn and the manure in the
yard, on the twelfth day Mr. Freeman ordered all the horses out except one
which belongs to the tenant of the house and is ready to foal anytime now.
On the thirteenth day the trouble with the septic tank was discovered
and Mr. Freeman was given three alternatives to follow: he could look for
a new location for the septic system; he could vacate the house; or he could
put in the two new tanks to service the house. This is a temporary system
which will have to be serviced as needed but it will serve the purpose until
the sewer lines are ready for the devilopment.
On the fourteenth day he started to move the manure only because at that
time he was told that unless the manure was moved a complaint would be filed
in Concord District Court. He did remove some of the manure that day because
he was afraid of going to court.
Mr. Smith said that as far as he could see all the debris would have to
be removed. The odor is very bad. The decomposed wall board that was put
in would have to be removed, also we do not know how many dead animals have
been buried there or if Mr. Kelley, when he was in the disposal businnes put
sane of his rubbish around the property. Mr. Smith said all this must be
removed and cannot be dumped in Lexington.
Mr. Lambie and Dr. Ellicott questioned if we had the right to have him
remove all that material.
Mr. Smith said he could not build on this material and Mr. Freeman will
have to prove to me that this is clean fill. Most of this material is in
the area where the road will go and you can not build a road on that material.
The Board asked if Mr. Lucas, consulting engineer for the Board, had been
out to this site. Mr. Smith said "Yes". It was agreed that nothing more
could be done until a report from Mr. Lucas was received.
Dr. Ellicott questioned the application for approval for the renewal of HANCOCK HOUSE
the State license for Hancock House Nursing Home. NURSING HOME
Mr. Smith said he had been down once and would go back again before the
form was mailed to the State.
The Board signed the application for Hancock House Nursing Home. At the
present time this approval will be held until Mr. Smith is satisfied with the
condition of the Nursing Home.
