Cranbury Board of Health Reviews Septic Plan and Health Inspections
- Meeting Overview:
In a recent meeting, the Cranbury Board of Health discussed several issues, including the approval of septic plans for new construction and the results of recent health inspections for local businesses and recreational facilities. The board also addressed outstanding dog license renewals and water pollution activities.
10:20A notable topic was the discussion regarding new septic plans for a property on Cranberry Neck Road. The property owner intends to convert an existing barn into an office space, which requires a bathroom and, consequently, a connection to a newly designed septic system. The board reviewed the design, which had been previously rejected due to sizing issues but has since been rectified. The plan now meets the necessary specifications to proceed.
03:35The board also received the Health Officer’s environmental report, covering food inspections for April and May. Several local establishments were rated satisfactory, including Teddy’s Lunchinet, the 7-Eleven, and Zenis Beastro. However, some businesses, such as Leo Sushi and Market on Main, have closed. There was a specific complaint about expired goods at the First Presbyterian Church, but an inspection confirmed that the complaint was unfounded, and the facility was praised for its condition.
07:54Additionally, the board discussed the results of water sampling at Brainard Lake, with samples returning extremely clean measurements. The next round of sampling is scheduled soon to ensure ongoing water quality.
05:54In addressing old business, the issue of non-renewed dog licenses was raised. Violations have been issued, with fines or mandatory court appearances as the next steps for compliance enforcement.
