Nelson said regarding the visitor's comments earlier; she was in an awkward position because she lived with the problem and was also on the Board. She said as far as the sump area there clearly had been an impact and if it hadn't been for a table and other stuff holding the wall it would have been a bigger problem. She stated she would like to be there when the Board showed up to assess the problem, because Pete Thompson would be out of town. She said it would be good for P. Thompson to hear feedback from her on what was said and going to be done. She would also like to pursue a fence to secure the property. D.

Pickett said he heard bits and pieces of the visitor's comments and that he would like to look at the past minutes re: fencing the property. He would also like to take a look at the lot to see what's been done and /or going on at the lot. He said as far as the dumpster issue; it needed to be addressed and the Board needed to keep on top of it and the Borough. He stated, if the Board cleaned up their area the Borough might see the light. S. Arndt said he wasn't in favor of fencing the one side. He suggested construction fencing to block the area off. He stated, he understood from W. Koning the Borough was trying to do a decent job in providing the service with dumpsters. He said they needed to come up with a solution for the dumpster and that fire district one residents used it. A possible solution might be a transfer station past the Majdic property down the street. Chair Dolph stated he supported a lot of what was said around the table. He told the Board he would be out of town starting Friday for a week.
