The Board voted <br />2:0:0 to determine that the property owned by Kevin Duval off of Pleasant Road is not subject to <br />flooding nor unsuitable for human occupancy and that the building of a single family home on the <br />land will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare. <br />The Board went through items included in the packet sent to the members. <br />Other business - Clay noted that the Hazardous Waste Advisory Committee will be meeting <br />September 16 to discuss a longterm plan for household and small business hazardous materials. <br />Richards said she might be able to attend. <br />Transition issues - The Board voted 2:0:0 to appoint Carol DeCost as their agent to sign burial <br />permits and death certificates until such time as a new Health Director is hired. A discussion was <br />held about various issues concerning how tasks will be handled in the months when there is no <br />Health Director.
