MONTEREY BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING MINUTES
Date: February 4, 2008
Present: Stephen Enoch, John Makuc, Robert Annelli and Peter Kolodziej
The meeting began at 3:30pm
1. Mail was reviewed.
2. The minutes from 1.14.08 were approved as written.
3. Peter Kolodziej gave the Board an update of the hearing held for the Lombardo properties located on Pixley Rd and for the Title 5 inspector Erik Kirchner.
4. Dana Bixby, Architect came in to discuss a proposed project at 9 Bidwell Rd. The new owners would like to reconstruct the existing house and add an additional 1300 square feet. The applicant needs to apply for a special permit and they would like to make sure all is in order with the Board of Health prior to applying. Dana reviewed the proposed floor plan with the Board. The Board reviewed the septic plans on file and stated that they would want to check that it doesn’t impact the previous upgrade variance that was granted which was suitable at the time. The Board will need to review the plans and Title 5 codes prior to giving a definitive answer. Dana will provide a narrative of the project via email.
5. Ray Tryon, Fire Chief came in to ask if someone on the Board had spoken with the owner’s of the Blue Heron Landing and whether they were given information on the CO detectors. Peter Kolodziej gave a history of the carbon monoxide problems that were reported and what the Board was requiring to rectify the problem. Ray’s concern is that the carbon monoxide detectors fall under the Fire Department’s jurisdiction and if there is/was a CO problem, 911 should’ve been called because then the Fire Department could’ve taken a reading immediately and if the levels were high handled the situation accordingly. Ray is doing an inspection on Wednesday to look at improvements made.
6. The Board reviewed last year’s budget and completed their FY09 budget requests.
7. The Board reviewed septic plans submitted for 31 Sackman Way – Catino, a voluntary upgrade to a Jet Bat system. Peter will call White Engineering; the Board would like to know if the applicants plan to add on to the existing building in the future.
8. The Board discussed the septic application upgrades for Seven Stones. Peter suggested issuing the permit with conditions: The Board will need copies of the easements and the updated deed with the subdivided plots and new map and lot numbers before a certificate of compliance will be issued from the Board. The Board will also place a condition on the permit that the work can not begin until the spring.
9. S. Enoch received a call over the weekend about a sulfer looking, blue dye in the ice on Lake Garfield. S. Enoch 1st called M. Forbes to check that it wasn’t a residual effect from the salt that the Town uses on the roads. M. Forbes confirmed that the salt the Town uses is green. Peter Kolodziej will make a site visit and report back to the Board.
10. The Board is not going to meet again in February unless there is an influx of work coming in.
The meeting adjourned at 5:00pm
