DISCUSSION

Brent Barlow, 31 North Main Street, appeared before the Board of Health to voice a complaint against Princeton Ballet for failure to maintain its building and allow water runoff from its roof onto Mr. Barlow’s property. Mr. Barlow explained that Princeton Ballet removed the gutters from the building for maintenance reasons and then work was stopped due to contamination problems. As a result of the removal of the gutters, Mr. Barlow’s basement was flooded. Dr. Notterman asked if there was standing water on the property. If so, the Board of Health could intervene. Mr. Longo advised that he will inspect the site tomorrow morning. Mr. Barlow was advised that he should voice his complaint to the Township Engineer.

The Board of Health was advised that Karen Izzo of Cranbury Neck Road catches feral cats, takes them to Dr. Mitko for examination and neutering at the Township’s expense, and then releases them. Chairwoman Coyle will address same with Christine Smeltzer.
