Attorney Kevin Kirrane remarked that the homeowner was recently made aware of the situation, and Ms. Parsons hired Mr. DeBarros to pump the system. Because this is a zoning violation and an illegal use, the garage apartment cannot be occupied. Therefore, a Notice to Quit was issued to the tenant, Amy Harris. Lucy Burton commented that she is not comfortable with allowing 45 days for installation of the septic system. Glen Harrington offered to design the septic plan on an emergency basis, therefore shortening the time frame to 30 days. The Board agreed that the system be designed and installed by February 10, 2015. Kalliope Egloff made a motion that the Board of Health modify the previous motion for 140 Noisy Hole Road to have the septic system pumped by January 16, 2015, with notification to the Board of Health. If the system is not pumped by this date, then a fine of $300.00 per day will commence on January 17, 2015. Installation of the septic system must be completed with a Certificate of Compliance issued by February 10, 2015. If the installation is not completed and the Certificate of Compliance issued by February 10, 2015, then a fine of $300.00 per day will accrue beginning February 11, 2015. Burton Kaplan seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. Lucy Burton made a motion that the Board of Health require the property located at 140 Noisy Hale Road be connected to town water, allowing the existing well for irrigation purposes only, by the February 10, 2015, deadline. Burton Kaplan seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. Lucy Burton remarked that the other issue is the existing fines. In Ms. Burton's opinion, she would like to continue discussion of the accrued fines, the inspection items noted above, and the Health Agent's inspection of the bedrooms and smoke detectors to the first meeting after the February 10, 2015, deadline so that the issue can be revisited if and when everything has been addressed. Lucy Burton made a motion that the Board of Health revisit the smoke detector, the weather stripping, and other repair items after the Health Agent has had the opportunity to verify the number of bedrooms in the main house and confirm or deny that the smoke detectors are hard -wired in both dwelling units at the first meeting following the deadline of February 10, 2015. Kalliope Egloff seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. NEW BUSINESS 1. Sign Expense Warrants. The Board members signed the expense warrants. 2. Review/Approve BOH Public Session Minutes: December 4, 2014. Kalliope Egloff made a motion that the Board of Health approve the Public Session minutes of December 4, 2014. Burton Kaplan seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. 3. Revision of Bare -Hand Contact Regulation: Part 1V Section 4.00. Glen Harrington commented that this is a language change of the Bare -Hand Contact Regulation. The wording "Town Clerk" should read "Board of Health". The Town Clerk collected fines because a citation, according to the non -criminal disposition ticket, is paid to the Town Clerk. Burton Kaplan made a motion that the Board of Health approve the revision of the Bare -Hand Contact Regulation. Kalliope Egloff seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. 4. 2014 Town Report. Lucy Burton and the Board of Health commended Glen Harrington on a job well done for preparing and presenting the 2014 Mashpee Town Report.
