A copy of that report as well as many mitigation measures, if necessary, should also be sent to the Board of Health. 3) The existing license for four horses will need to be modified. The plans as shown do not meet the minimum setback required for distances of fences to property line and barn to other houses. Site Plan for Calareso property - The Board voted 2:0:0 to forward the following comments to CPDC: 1) The proposed rubbish storage would be an improvement over the current situation as there would be a compactor and the area would be screened. 2) The building will still need to go through the plan review process required by the State Sanitary Code Chapter X before construction. The new building will need to meet the current code (the existing building does not). Planned Residential Development plans for Bear Hill Apartments - The Board voted 2:0:0 to forward the following comments to CPDC: 1) An evaluation of the property is to be performed by a licensed pest control operator for the determination of the presence of rodents before the destruction of any buildings and construction.
