12 <br /> s <br /> i Report of the Board of Health <br /> s <br /> ` This is the final report of this Board as a part of the <br /> ' Board of Selectmen. You will remember the Town voted to <br /> separate the Board of Health from the Board of Selectmen. <br /> For that reason we have submitted an article establishing an <br /> expense account for the Board of Health. <br /> The Board of Selectmen will be happy to pass on any <br /> information it has to the new Board to make its task of <br /> setting up the new department easier. <br /> There are several conditions and problems which will <br /> require some attention in the very near future.

The area could be kept in <br /> �. better condition with the expenditure of more money and/or <br /> " more cooperation from the people who use this area by <br /> TIE � dumping their refuse in the proper place at the dump. <br /> l � <br /> Now, as to relocating the Town dump. We are recom- <br /> mending an area between Rte. 28 and Meeting House Road on <br /> e the Northerly side of Ashers Path. This is a large area with <br /> i ' <br />
