PRESENT: Larry Labor, Chair, Allan Wooley, and TammyLee Morin

OTHERS PRESENT: Mr. Don Fontana.

Mr. Donald Fontana may be attending the meeting with Dog and Septic
issues.

Mr. Fontana expressed his concerns with a neighbor s dog that is
allowed to run loose. He say’s that it has not shown any viciousness
but is a rather large dog and likes to jump on them. His wife has
had hip surgery and is in fear that she will get knocked down or hurt
by this dog during their walks. He has spoken to the owner and it
seems to have had no effect on her dog’s freeness. Mr. Fontana is
concerned about his wife’s safety and would like some help in fixing
this problem. The select Board suggested that he call the Animal
Control Officer Mr. Bonneville and see if he will speak to the owner
and resolve this matter.

There were no septic issues brought up.
