Um which manages the property line. So that is that. Other than that it's a Christine Yard, it's a large property, another brand new store-bought coop with a walk-in run. That is a human walkable run. Um
Um every everything's in place. Um it was it was I when I was there last week, which is the second time I've been there, it was unannounced and the the coop was the coop and the run was spotless. Um it there are presently the requisite
number of birds and everything is in order. >> Okay. Uh Mr. LaVoy, once again, yeah, the uh no no roosters? >> No roosters, sir. >> You must have a rodent extermination
contract in place? >> Yep. >> And your application says eight chickens. Is that uh that the number we're going to keep it at? >> Eight hens so far, no surprises. >> Okay, very good. Um for for the re- for the record though, we also did get a letter from a
Raymond Solomon of 455 Charles Street with that with the writing in opposition. Uh for the for the um previously mentioned reason, problem a possible rat and mouse problem. Well, in this area we have had a rat and mouse
problem for a number of years. I have spent a small fortune on poison to kill rats and mice for the past 3 years. The count is finally starting to slow down. Um as we know if we get an extermination if we have it someone with an extermination contract in and they're checking the
things, checking the traps, that usually helps to deter further increases in the in the population. Do we have a motion? >> Move to approve. >> I'll second. Tess, can we have a roll
call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> Okay. Mr. Oboy, good luck. >> Thank you, sir. Good Good afternoon. >> Good afternoon. Uh next we have the tobacco violation
hearing. We need a motion to open up a hearing. >> So moved. >> I'll second. Can we have a roll call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> Okay, we have a tobacco violations hearing, the second of offense of an act
to modernize tobacco control from the Farm Market at 223 Derby Street here in Fall River. Jennifer is with us? >> Hello. >> Oh, there you are. >> [laughter] >> We got so many people I have to search on the screen for everybody today.
All right, Jennifer, fill us in. >> Okay, so I did receive a complaint for Farm Market that mentioned that the store was selling flavored vapes on July 17th at approximately 11:17 a.m. I went in and conducted an inspection at
Farm Market. During my inspection, I was able to find a black shopping bag with a mixture flavored vapes such as grape, pineapple, and menthol. This resulted in their second violation of 105 CMR 665. A cease and desist was issued with a
mandated fine of $2,000. The fine is due on August 10th. Um and then prior history shows that their first violation was on November 17th and that was for a sale to a minor. So, in question right now is their 7-day
suspension. That's up to the board to decide. >> Who's representing? >> Yes, sir. Uh good afternoon, everyone. >> Uh could you just identify yourself for the record cuz we only have you on the screen as Farm Market. >> Um uh so
um my >> Name and address, >> issue I couldn't My name is Tanvir. Last name is Sajib. And my address is 223 Darfee Street, uh Farm Market, Fall River. I'm so sorry, sir. Some reason I
couldn't open my video on. >> That's okay. That happens. >> Because I just just [clears throat] like few like hour ago I just download this app. It's my first time I've been in Zoom app. I never used it before.
>> Okay. Well, explain why you had flavored tobacco in your establishment. >> Um the sir I I I'm I'm out of town right now for last couple weeks. So, I already talked to my the guy was there. So, he said there this tobacco inspection was
on that day at 11:00 something the time was and she find some vape mix some from previous owner because we just take over this place like last year and sir those vape I'm pretty
sure it's from the previous owner. I'm so It's my mistake that I need to clean this up real quick, but still some stuff was there like mix what do you call vape something that, sir. So, that's the thing was happening on
that day, sir. >> So, how long have you owned the establishment? >> Uh sir, it's been like since last summer. >> Since last summer. What was the date of the previous violation, Jennifer? >> Uh their first violation was for a sale
to a minor on November 17th, 2025. >> So that's >> that's since last summer. Right? Yeah. >> Yeah, you want to guess that too. Yes, it >> And so you if you bought the place last summer, um
I know when the when drug stores trains change hands, there's a uh a huge inventory taken of everything and old old unwanted stock is is is uh properly disposed of and so you're you're telling me you bought a store,
you didn't inspect the inventory for for um expireds and and old >> we did we did so we did uh but >> Uh so you're you're there was a bad inventory crew uh
How did this black bag with the flavored vapes not be uh How was it bypassed? >> Uh honestly, sir, I think it's not bypassed, but the thing is it was in the back uh back in the store in the storeroom. I think uh I only talked to
my guy over there. >> It was in the back in a storeroom. Jennifer, you go all over these places, basements, attics, ceilings. >> Um yeah, so I can search anywhere inside the store. Um if there's any tobacco products, whether it's like in the
storage area, if it's inside of the facility, it's considered for sale. >> Okay, that's uh yeah. >> Jennifer, can you tell us more about the complaints that you received? Did you have them all to you? >> Yeah, so the complaint that I did receive, they mentioned that they um
that they that the person that had uh complained said that they saw customers leaving the store with flavored vapes and that they also mentioned that they were hiding products in many places, which included uh food containers. So, when I did look throughout the store,
there was a a box, like a Fiji box, and um when I opened up the box, that's where I saw the bag of flavor vapes hidden. >> Okay. I'm not in I'm inclined to uh find this a credible offense, uh
given that that we have have had the complaints, and you have the stuff in the store. Uh so, I'm I'm inclined to go along with the mandatory fine and and uh suspension. >> I would second that. >> So, so moved then.
>> Okay. Can we have a roll call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> Yes. Jennifer, can you make the arrangements for the 7-day suspension? When would that start? >> Uh yes. Um I can stop by on Monday just
to give them enough time to uh make sure everything is put away. >> Okay. >> Okay. I I'll reach out to the um the person that I had called in. >> All right. Sure, they'll they're going to Jennifer's going to be down to coordinate this. We are going to suspend your license for 7 days. We're going to
encourage you to clean out your inventory. We're going to encourage you to retrain your staff and yourself, and so um hopefully we will never meet in this forum again. Thank you.
Can we have a motion to close the hearing? >> So moved. >> I'll second. Tess, can we have a roll call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> Okay, next item.
We have a request on the Beaver Solution installs at Mill Pond and Bell Rock Road. Mr. Furlong, and I assume that's why you're here with us today. This This sounds exciting. You know, I've seen a lot of beaver shows on PBS, and
there was a great article about the beavers in the in Nevada. And so, what And And do you know about the beaver hats and the millions of beavers that were in here in the 15 and 1600s and the European demand for beaver skins, and
they were almost wiped out. And that's what's changed the United States uh uh topography. >> Yeah, without >> Please, if you would, sir. >> No, definitely without a doubt. So, thank you very much. Um you know, again, uh Paul Furlong, the administrator of
community utilities, uh overseeing water and sewer for the city of Fall River. Um you know, typically in my line of work, I would never, you know, water and sewer. I wouldn't think that I would have to be dealing or thinking about beavers and how to how to keep them
where they where they can go and where they can't go, but it's just another hat that we need to wear here in this department. So, um the reason that we're in front of you tonight is because we have uh we have a issue that has developed over the past
year uh up in the Bell Rock Road area, which is in the reservation side of Fall River, uh so the other side of the North Watuppa Pond area, uh and uh Doctors Mill Pond. Uh Beavers came into that area and started building dams uh
behind the uh behind the dam at the Mill Pond, which raised the Mill Pond uh up. Uh that impacted uh hiking trails uh through that area as well as footbridges that crossed uh across the wetland area in the swamp area in that in that location. Uh we've been going
out with our staff to deconstruct these beaver dams, uh seeing the hazard that they were creating. Um the other spot that we have been having issues with them is Bell Rock Road in the There's three culverts that cross Bell Rock Road, go from the swamp uh and bring uh
water in uh pretty much at the head of Terry Brook uh and brings it all the way down to through the Terry Brook Dam Doctors Mill Pond Terry Brook Dam uh out through Narrows Road uh and Assonet and through the estuary up in that area.
Um, the uh that where they build their where they have been blocking there is actually blocking off uh 336-in culverts that crossed underneath the roadway uh to allow the the water to go through that area. Uh if those become plugged, uh the water that would then rise up in
the swamp area behind it, uh block the culverts, and could uh you know, overtop the roadway and eventually destroy the roadway, which would uh which would be a major hazard uh A for the people that live out there as well as emergency uh personnel that
may need to access the the areas or the fire lines out there. So, we've been we've been watching this uh you know, we've we've sunk uh countless number of man hours in there trying to maintain the situation ourselves with our own staff, but it's
come to the point where we need to uh go to the go to the next step. So, we looked around and we ended up reaching out to a company called Beaver Solutions. Uh they came in, evaluated uh the areas that uh that we're looking at, and they have uh recommended some of
their Beaver Deceiver Solutions uh is what they call it. Uh essentially what they what they're going to do, and I'll really simplify it, uh one of the locations they're really going to take and they're going to build a kind of a fence uh in the water out behind this area um to
not allow the beavers to be able to get into the area next to the culverts to build their dam. They'll be able to do it out a little ways, but it'll kind of be capped on how tall they can build it. Uh the other one really it takes and it puts a pipe right through the center of the beaver dam,
and then takes and puts a kind of a floating head out in the water to be able to regulate the height of the water in the pond so that it doesn't overtop the dam. Uh from what I've heard, beavers don't like the sound of running water. That's why they build their dams to stop the running water
from going over dams or down rivers and stuff like that. So this with a floating [snorts] discharge in the middle of the pond area will allow the water to go in there. They won't be able to get to the area where there's running water to be able to dam it up.
Um so those are the two solutions that we're looking at right now. Long term, we're also in touch with with trappers or other, you know, we're looking at other options as well. These beavers have moved from the north. They've been in the north in over the
past, you know, we've talked with Department of Fish and Game as well as our partners at DCR and they've been tracking them as they've slowly been moving south towards our area and they're finally here. Um you know, one of the other things we're looking at and I mentioned
trapping and potentially relocation of these with a uh with a nuisance pest control officer which is actually regulated through the state. Um you know, we're looking at that again.
We wouldn't want these to get into the drinking water supply of the North Watuppa. Beavers can carry some some diseases with them that we would not want to get around our drinking water supply. So that's the reason that we're hoping to be able to a
put a front and hold them here outside of our drinking water watershed and allow them to stay up in that area or relocate them elsewhere. So, um the other reason that the reason really
that I'm here to install these beaver solutions, um the Board of Health really needs to determine whether this is a a hazard to uh public health and uh you know, for us to be able to move forward, the permitting uh is an emergency letter from the Board of
Health, uh which allows us to be able to then go to the Conservation Commission, uh which they have a meeting next week, uh and they would allow us to install the beaver solutions, uh beaver deceivers within the uh within the wetland areas.
I know Jim Smith, I think, may also be on, who's uh uh project manager. Is he on? No, maybe not. Okay. >> see him on. >> Okay. Uh he'd been talking Yeah, he's been >> I I thought this would be the most fascinating part of the discussion, but they've all left.
>> [laughter] >> Yeah, no, uh you know, like I said, it's something that nothing thought that I would have to look at and learn about, but this is uh this is where where we are. So, I know there was a draft letter, I think, that was sent over to Tess, um
kind of like explaining uh uh what we needed to uh to to move forward with the permitting, um and yeah. >> Yep, and so, I think if the board were to to move forward with the emergency order, we would Yeah, we would just
provide Paul with a letter, which would allow him to to kind of move forward in the process. And then, Paul, I don't know if you I don't know if you had spoken about it, but the goal, I think, from from water and sewer was to do some work kind of in the near-term in August.
Um so, just to move for the board to know that, you know, there's a time um you know, timeline that the that the department is hoping to um to meet in order to do the work so that they can >> I'm assuming we can just authorize you to provide them with a letter test. We
don't have to sign this ourselves or >> That was yeah, my thought as agent for the board if I can draft the letter based on the board's recommendation. >> Yeah, so yeah, just back to the timeline like I said so first step that's laid out from the state. So
actually the state I believe it's the Department of Fish and Game designates to the local Board of Health to make the emergency determination and then gives the ability to the local Conservation Commission based on the Board of Health's
recommendation to allow an emergency condition to to actually do the work. Like I said the Conservation Commission's meeting is next week which we penciled in right now and then we're we're scheduled to August 11th. I
believe we're penciled in with the contractor to do the work. >> Okay, I'm ready to go. >> Yeah, I can understand it. I feel bad for the beavers. Have you ever watched PBS? >> [laughter] >> They're not just not going to move and
build a new pond 100 yards away and then another pond. >> Yeah, you know, and again it's tough cuz the one thing we need to make sure that we really want to try to do is keep them out of a North Walpole pond. That's the pond we we need to protect.
>> All right, so I move that we provide >> [sighs] >> the requested letter. >> I'll I'll second Tess, can we have a roll call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> Before you go >> kept informed of what happens to our
little beavers. Okay. >> Definitely, I will. >> Paul, before you go, can you what can you tell us about fluoridation? >> Uh so actually it's funny. I would just talk to Tess. I believe it was a couple of weeks ago. Uh we've still been trying to track down a product. We were able to
get a line on a manufacturer that has started to uh manufacture the type of uh fluoride that we need for our system. Uh we got a small sample from them. Uh it looks like it works. Since our equipment's been in mothballs for uh a
period of time, we need to get that uh back into shipshape um to be able to be operational. Uh but hopefully within the next couple of months, our plan is to do a test run with this product. >> Well, that's encouraging. It's been about 5 years, right?
>> Yeah, it's it's been it's been a while. And again, we every so often we would put things out there to see whether anybody was doing this. And this is uh provider that, you know, kind of started up the the chemical market, the water drinking water, and the wastewater chemical
market. There's been a lot of movements in in the past couple of years. Um different vendors, new vendors, people doing different things. So, uh this may be a good thing that came out of that. >> Good. >> Great. >> Okay. Thank you, Paul.
>> Thank you. Appreciate it, Paul. >> Yeah. Tess disappeared. There she is. >> [laughter] >> Sorry about that. My brother-in-law's playing the trumpet in in the basement and I'm he's not getting my messages to stop. Um so, I apologize for that. Uh Thomas
Corrid, are we doing a motion? >> I think we did that. >> We did that already. >> Yeah. >> We're up to We're up to the director's report. >> Okay. I apologize for the background noise here. Um Um I don't have much to report. We are moving forward with an uh Mass in Motion
Associate position. So, um we're excited that that position will be filled. That's a part-time. Um we that's a part-time position. Um we are always looking for um senior or currently looking for
a senior aide position at the senior center. So that's that's a part-time position as well. But otherwise we're the grants are continuing forward. The Mass in Motion team member Laura's been doing a wonderful job with that with
that grant and recently had a a large event this past weekend to encourage specifically youth how to bike safe safely. And so they set up it's like a traffic
garden. So they set up a whole kind of mock streets and it teaches the kids how to safely bike if they're out and about in the community. So there was a lot of partnership within the department that was happening. She partnered with Crystal Stone who's our
youth youth services coordinator to have some of the youth that are involved in her grant support the support the the the event by drawing out the traffic garden. And so there was a lot of
collaboration within the department and across the community. And so all all sorts of positive things happening in in the department that we're really excited about. Elizabeth who's on the shared services grant has been attending a a number of
community events. So trying to get the word out about you know tick-borne diseases mosquitoes you know removing stage standing water in folks homes. So really doing a lot of education at
this point in time based on kind of what we're seeing in the community. So so the department's busy and everybody's doing a lot of great work. >> Very good. Thank you. So did >> we receive anything for citizens input?
>> No, we [clears throat] did not. >> Okay. Um, to confirm the date for the next meeting, we we have the we usually the last Monday of the month, which would be the 31st, but the 24th would be the fourth Monday of the month. Any
any any preference on that, Michael or Tess or >> No, it doesn't matter. I'll be I can do either one. >> You want to go with the 31st? >> Sure. >> All right. We'll go with that, then. >> Okay, great. And I'll just confirm with
Dr. Gagliardi. And then and then um we'll connect back with you both to confirm. >> Yeah, if the 24th is better for him, then we can just just switch it. >> Yeah, either way. Either way. >> Okay. I'll put the 31st as our priority date and then the 24th as a backup for him.
>> All right, very good. Um Is there any other business to come before the board that of such a nature that couldn't make the agenda? >> No new business. >> Okay. Uh, can we have a motion to adjourn? >> So moved. >> I'll second today.
Can we have a roll call? >> Thomas Corey. >> Yes. >> Michael Coughlin. >> Yes. >> All right. Thank you, everyone, for for participating today, and I hope you have a lovely rest of the week. Enjoy this nice weather. >> Take care. >> It's always great when it rains midweek
