Fines for violations were issued and stated in the letter dated December 21, 2016, to Lakeside Estates for failing to perform asbestos surveys.

A permit is required for the demolition of a structure} and an asbestos survey is required prior to the demolition. This is a state regulation that the two _departments are enforcing.

Asbestos was still allowed to be used in building materials. alliope Egloff stated that she is concerned about the emotional implication that the Board of Health made a decision on December 15, 2016, because the Board was annoyed. Lakeside_Estates has been a consistent agenda item. Ms. Egloff did not feel it was frustration on the part of the Board but more life going forward. Brian Baumgaertel commented that in Matthew Haney's letter to the Board of Health he did not use the word tappeal". it was not understood that he was appealing the enforcement orders issued on the prior date. At that point the date had passed, and there was no particular reason not to proceed in issuing the fines. The violations already occurred, and Mr. Haney failed to obey the Board of Health order. - lalliope Egloff remarked that additional information such as receipts, notices, and invoices were requested from fir. Haney as well as the request for the surveys. Nothing has been received as yet, and there is no reason that the information could not be provided. Lucy Burton commented that the required information was requested by the Board and ignored. A sufficient amount of time has lapsed. For three years Lakeside Estates has not provided a list of occupants: which is a monthly requirement, to the Board of Health. They.are consistently in arrears on their use tax to the Board of Health. The taxes are never paid on time, and the monthly fees are paid once or trice a year. These historical problems are the sort of things that upset the Board and compound the issues with Lakeside Estates. Mr. Harrington stated that his asbestos survey was limited in nature, and the Board needed to determine if any other asbestos was present. Asbestos debris is a hazard, and must be treated accordingly. The Board discussed the asbestos fines that were unposed upon Lakeside Estates at the December 15, 20163 Board of Health meeting.
