DENNISVILLE – Prior to the commencement of Dennis Township Committee’s meeting March 18, the board of health’s meeting reported a “suspected hazardous substance discharge notification.” The site of the discharge was named as coming from Pine Street. The violation occurred Jan. 13 when a resident was accused of “pumping out human waste.” Committee decided to monitor the situation, notify the offending party and inform the county Health Department.
Hundreds of dogs
Dr. Nick Holland of Shore Animal Control Services addressed committee and introduced members of his team including Linda Gentile and Leah Barber. Barber gave a report on the ongoing animal census. She reported that presently 625 dog licenses have been issued as well as 160 notifications sent to residents. The house-to-house census taking continues.
New generator in 2015
Committeeman Albert DiCicco reported that the Hagen Road complex of the Dennis Township school district will be getting a new generator. Delivery of that unit is anticipated in about a year. With the generator in place, the school will be designated as a county shelter during emergencies. DiCicco reported that he hopes the Academy Road complex will follow suit once gas lines have been extended to that area.
Committee also voted to redirect certain capital funds from capital improvements to “computers and air conditioning.”
Talking school safety
Aug. 14 will be the date of a meeting of representatives of the State Police, committee, and the volunteer fire departments of Ocean View and Dennisville to discuss school safety.
