"Upon receipt of your letter, we got rid of vehicles that were of no use to anyone. There are no unregistered vehicles around my house, with the exception of a 1931 Model A. Ford located to the rear..... which I am in the process of restoring,... and a classic Mustang that my son has 'For Sale'. I am a member of the 'South Shore Antique Auto Club'. We have Antiques and classics stored out of sight and inside where they are not in the view of abbutters or the public. The cars that are parked in my side lot are all registered and in use almost daily. Through these efforts, and my continued policing, I am cooperating with your request, therefor I should not be requested to appear in court." Ed Rosenberg proceeded to explain to Mr.. Wilcox that if the cars are kept for over a certain period of time, the seals begin to give away and fluids leak out causing a Health Hazard. Ed Tartufo also assured Mr. Wilcox that he was not the only one to appear before the Board regarding Junk Cars. The Board of Selectmen told the Board that the Junk Cars' Law should be enforced, and that many letters go out during the week The Board agreed to drop the court charges.

A Special Day for the town to bring to a designated area all household pollutants. A chemist would be there to analyze and takb to a special Hazardous Waste Dump, the household pollutants. Money would be needed from the Board to cover postage fee to ask cooper- ation from the Town Businesses. The Point of this would be to make the town aware of the Hazardous Matter in the homes: ranging from empty bugspray cans to animal flea collars. She will return in August to the Board with a list of expenses. Norman Landry - Willow Street - Cabot Pond Problem Mr. Landry came before the Board on hope for help with his problem. He complained about the noise and pollution caused from people swimming in Cabot Pond. Mr. Landry wanted to know why there was swimming in Cabot Pond, where there is fish dying, but no swimming in Fulton's Pond. Mr. Landry would like a sign put up stating "no swimming" in Cabot Pond. The only way the Board would be able to help is to have Karl do research and test the water. Other than that, the problem of people swimming and littering in Cabot Pond is out of the Boards' hands. 6.
