l - <br /> The Chairman added: "A lot of people do that, they let it go to that point and it's <br /> still there."' <br /> ella Elizenberry said: "'Can we mandate a town meeting." <br /> Glenn Santos said: "I don't think that's something being done by the town <br /> meeting, I think it's something that has to be done by the Board of Health." What the <br /> Title Five does, you get more of the phosphorous out and other contaminants out and the <br /> nitrogen nothing," he stated. <br /> Glenn Santos added: "That's one of the problems that we as a Board of Health <br /> huckie had a very good point when we started this whole discussion. We don't see the <br /> problem, we can't correct the problem unless you sell thero e� and we find out that <br /> p p <br /> has to be inspected, and there's been evidence of failure. In years past if your system is in <br /> failure we can't force you, to denote the system even though it might be close to a well or <br /> close to a wetland. But we've been more proactive by requiring people to do that and also <br /> 1f it's in failure and there's town water available, we won't want you on town water. <br /> That's something we can do around the perimeters of Title 5. You have to cone out and <br /> actually say all cesspools in town are illegal, you have five years to that's going to be a <br /> big think to chomp off, as far as trying to enforce. Like huckic'soint� unless you're <br /> p <br /> selling it or it's in failure, we don't know what the damage is happening or what kind of <br /> damage is in the ground,"he stated. <br /> The Chairman said: "Can I interject at this point. I believe that this committee <br /> should not be afraid of Laing decisions that may not be aspop ular but e believe are <br /> necessary." <br /> huc i e Green said: "Most of the decisions we make are o un ular anyway, <br /> ywa , <br /> that's the nature of the beast. We may not be reelected. We are facing some tough <br /> g <br /> choices, some bad situations those situations no matter what, people are not going to like <br /> the fact that O.K.? You're saying I'm responsible for making this problem now I have to <br /> be responsible to fix it. That's not going to make a lot of people happy, O.I . But we have <br /> g p p ppy <br /> one of the two worst bays on the Cape. There is a reason and we are the reason. People <br /> are going to accept that and say fine, well, I'll do my part, is notoin to be an easy <br /> g g <br /> thing. We have to loop at the whole picture, we have a beautiful community, we have <br /> beautiful beaches, beautiful bays, even though we are in tough shape, we're going to get <br /> worse, every day we put off doing something, we are degrading our community and <br /> degrading our town. And it will cost us. And each day will cost us more. <br /> The Chairman added"Given that the time, I have a couple of action items. One of <br /> them would be tallying to the school board regarding nitrogen, conservation and <br /> g g g a <br /> enviro-nment. <br /> What are the pros and cons regarding of havingthe water district be also responsible for <br /> wastewater rnainagement?aa <br /> p <br /> huc ie Green said: "I would also approach the town manager about what her <br /> situation would be providing funding and resources to head up the educational program <br /> so that we can go forward with this, <br />
