Board reappoints landfill monitoring consultant at same price as last year
Summary
The board approved renewal of landfill monitoring services with Mark Poppam at $5,820 (same as last year), citing his familiarity with local reporting and his role in reducing monitoring frequency.
The Town of Templeton Board of Health voted to renew a landfill monitoring services contract at the same price as the previous year.
The board discussed retaining Mark Poppam (transcript spelled variants including Poppam/Papam) to continue monitoring and reporting duties. A presenter said Poppam had helped reduce monitoring from twice a year to once a year and that his fee for the coming year is $5,820, unchanged from the prior contract. Several members expressed support for staying with the consultant because of his familiarity with the town's landfill and prior work coordinating required information for state reporting.
A motion to continue the contract was made and seconded and members voted in favor. The board did not alter the scope or frequency during the meeting; members will continue to receive monitoring reports in future meetings.
