Proposed nail salon - Shaws’ Plaza
Kingston Nguyen did not appear for his appointment with the BOH regarding the proposed nail salon for Shaws’ Plaza.  However, Kenny Nguyen, who had appeared at the BOH office the previous day, did appear.  He stated he had not yet met with the Building Inspector or applied to the Zoning Board for a hearing.  The Board of Health agreed that, pending ZBA approval, as long as the BOH regulations are followed properly (i.e., no discharge of toxic substances; tight tank; proper ventilation, etc.) there would be no threat to the well...and the BOH would not have a problem with this establishment. It was agreed to send a letter to this effect to the ZBA.  Also, a letter will be sent to ascertain what approvals have been given over the past decade for Shaws Plaza by the ZBA under the special permit process.

Variance Request - 10 Massapoag Avenue
William Gottwald, P.E.,  and Michael Moreshead, contractor were present.  Suzi Peck recused herself.
The request is for a passive system...no I/A.  The issue of the need for a retaining wall to be reviewed with Jim Andrews. Pending that decision, the Board was ready to approve.

Voted: (Bingham/Schwab) unanimously to accept the plans dated 3/2/07 for the repair of the system at 10 Massapoag Avenue, with the proviso that, prior to commencing the  repair, the proponents speak with the Health Agent for Engineering regarding the potential need for a retaining wall....resolve that issue with him... and make any necessary changes to the plan.  The same restrictions will apply as in the prior approval letter (except for the O&M/testing requirements).       

VOTED: (Bingham/Rosen) unanimously to adjourn its regular meeting at 8:05 PM to enter into executive session to discuss pending litigation and, following the executive session, to adjourn for the evening.
