Resolution Duly Adopted
Mr. Saland explained his negative vote - he had no objection to
the concept of the agreement, but objected to the risk of the
Town being "stuck financially" if the operation ran over the
amount allocated.
Mr. Diehl then referred to his memo to the Board dated July 1,
1975, item 42. He and Mr. Jensen had met with Mr. Hill from the
Department of Health, Mr. Cacchio and other respresentatives of
the Department of Health to discuss the problems with Rockingham
Farms plant and the costs involved to correct them. Mr. Lapar
came up with amounts needed for each of the 6 items listed in a
communication from the Department of Health. On the basis of
collecting $500 for sewer hook-up fees from 46 homes, Mr. Diehl
wished to offer a resolution to comply with the Department of
Health letter to correct these problems.
Mr. Rappleyea advised the Board that before introducing a resolu-
tion they should first authorize Mr. Lapar to go out to bid on
these items and notify the Department of Health of their action.
MR. DIEHL moved to authorize Mr. Lapar to put the items as stated
out to bid and bring the bid figures back to the Board at the
next regular Board meeting.
Seconded by Mr. Jensen.
Roll Call Vote: 5 Ayes
MR. JENSEN moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Saland,
and unanimously carried.
