Cranbury Board of Health to Decide on Hosting Free Rabies Clinic by December 1st
- Meeting Overview:
In the October 6, 2025, meeting, the Cranbury Board of Health discussed the potential organization of a free rabies clinic for the town by December 1st. The board aims to replicate the success of last year’s event, tentatively scheduling the clinic for Saturday, January 24th, pending confirmation of availability from key participants, including a veterinarian and the animal control officer.
A significant portion of the meeting focused on maintaining the town’s health standards through inspections and addressing public complaints. The board reviewed food and animal inspections for June and July, with most establishments receiving satisfactory ratings. However, Love Your Dog received a conditional rating in June. The board also tackled complaints, notably about overgrown vegetation on Cranberry Road, which remains unresolved due to difficulty contacting the out-of-state property owner. The issue is set for court proceedings, and there was discussion about potential court-ordered property maintenance.
Environmental activities such as septic and water inspections were also reviewed, with several site evaluations and trench inspections approved. Additionally, the board discussed linking public health topics to the town’s website, focusing on measles outbreak tracking, health management programs, and updates from the CDC. The aim is to provide residents with valuable information on public health issues.
Further administrative updates included a proposal to alter the board’s meeting schedule to every other month, moving sessions from Mondays to Tuesdays. This change aims to align better with the schedules of board members. The board also approved the 2026 budget, maintaining funding for educational initiatives, membership dues, and legal services.
