New Business:

6:05 p.m. Peter Craine - – Non criminal disposition by laws
Discussion of Board of Health Non –criminal by laws was discussed to ensure accuracy of Board
Regulations and State Laws.
6:15 p.m. Sons of Kristoff – Christine Kristoff, Owner was present. Discussion took place about the company hauling refuse in Town. She applied for a permit to haul refuse on the short term basis to serve their current customers. It is unclear if Sons of Kristoff will continue to haul in the Town. Christine has to decide if she would like to continue on a long term basis. The Town currently has a contractual agreement with Wheelabrator that all refuse be brought there if it is collected from Rutland. Sons of Kristoff currently do not dispose of refuse at Wheelabrator Millbury so they might not wish to continue hauling in Town due to that fact. She will follow up with the Board prior to the next meeting with her decision.
Discussion of potential new owners – There was further discussion of procedures to become a licensed hauler in Town. Kevin Jarvi was present and spoke to the Board about the possibility of starting a new trash hauling company. Carl Christenson was present.
