MONTEREY BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING MINUTES
Date: August 11, 2008
Present: Stephen Enoch, John Makuc, Robert Annelli and Peter Kolodziej
Also Present: Marshall White of White Engineering, Kenneth Basler of the Monterey General Store,
The meeting began at 3:45pm
1. Mail was reviewed.
2. The minutes from 7.28.08 were approved as written.
3. S. Enoch received a call and M. Noe received several calls regarding the septic system at 99 Hupi Rd. The potential buyer’s and the realtor have both been informed that the Board of Health files are filed by street address and there isn’t a file for 99 Hupi Rd. It was suggested to the realtor that they call the Assessor’s office for the old map & lot number as it may be filed under that prior to being issued a 911 street number. The potential buyers were also advised to call the Building Inspector’s office to confirm if a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for the property.
4. Kenn Basler of the Monterey General Store was present to discuss the proposal to run a separate business called the “Tea Room” out of the General Store. The Tea Room will serve sandwiches and she (Nancy Lee, Owner and Operator) needs a separate food services permit and needs to be serv-safe certified (she is enrolled in the upcoming course). Her business/kitchen operations need to be separated from the General Store’s operations. The facilities are adequate for their purposes and a separate sink is being installed. They still meet compliance with Title 5 and the flow of their septic system. Robert Annelli asked if the Planning Board had been advised that there are 2 businesses running out of the store and if they have given their
permission. R. Annelli asked how many businesses were allowed to operate out of one location. Kenn will follow up with the Planning Board to see if there are any issues there. The Board approved the food services permit conditional upon Nancy receiving her serv-safe certification and until then would fall under Kenn Basler’s direction. Robert Annelli abstained from this vote.
5. Marshall White of White Engineering came before the Board to talk about the Ahye property on Main Rd. The system has had several plans submitted and perc tests done. The 2000 gallon tank and leaching area remains the same as on the original permit and Marshall is looking for an extension on the original permit issued (in 2003 or 2004) which has expired. New regulations would require that 2 more test pits be performed. Peter Kolodziej stated that since DEP has sent something in writing stating that this is now required, the Board has stated that the additional test pits will be required and clean out sites will need to be referenced on the plans.
6. A letter was written to Kutsher’s Sports Academy regarding their septic application for the Staff House. The Board is requiring that KSA be in full compliance with all open permits from the Building Department and the Board of Health.
7. The Board reviewed the ZBA application for the U.S.P.S. on Main Rd. build a loading dock. The Board is requiring confirmation of the current water supply and whether or not the well noted on the plans has been properly decommissioned if the Post Office is using town water.
8. The Board reviewed the ZBA application for Levy on Hebert’s Cove. In order to approve the project that Board will require the following information be provided:
a. Confirmation that the Hebert’s Cove shared septic system capacity is sufficient.
b. A Title 5 inspection of the existing shared system should be performed by a licensed engineer to confirm that the system is still functional and that the capacity is adequate for the proposed use and that the shared system is properly registered under Title 5 regulations.
9. The Board will not meet on August 18th as scheduled. Their next meeting will be on Monday, September 8, 2008.
10. The Board agreed to give a $50 gift certificate to Ashley Backhaus for volunteering her whole day at the recent blood drive.
