9. No person shall commit any wanton or malicious act on the premises of another or invade the privacy of any person on such premises by looking in the window of any house, or spying upon any person.

person on such premises by looking in the window of any house, or spying upon any person. Nothing contained in this section shall abridge or in any way limit the right of a police officer to enter upon private property in the performance of his official duties."

REPORT OF THE HAMILTON HOUSING AUTHORITY


To the Citizens of Hamilton:


Title to the Lamson School property passed to this Authority in the late summer after some delay due to problems inherent in any transaction of this kind, and the time involved to accomplish the demolition of the school. During this period, the Authority had taken the necessary steps to get the project under way, including interviewing numerous archi- tectural firms and following the various procedures necessary to qualify for State financial assistance. Considerable time has been spent reviewing with officials of the State Housing Board various proposals as to the selection of an architect and the number of units to be constructed, all of which must be approved by that Board before action can be taken.


Within the past few weeks, however, the State Housing Board has made its final decision and we should now be able to go forward to take the necessary steps to complete the project.


JOHN B. GRAY, Chairman Hamilton Housing Authority

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH


To the Citizens of Hamilton :


We submit herewith a report of the activities of the Board of Health for the year ending December 31, 1961.


Along with the other departments of the Town, the activities and duties of the Board of Health have continued to increase with the growth of our community. Every effort is being made to maintain and improve the services through constant study and more efficient operation with- out increasing our over-all budget.


In addition to having jurisdiction over communicable diseases and local health problems, the Board of Health is responsible for the collection and disposal of refuse and garbage; the maintenance and operation of the Town dump; the approval of all new building developments to ascer- tain whether adequate sewage and drainage can be provided; the inspec- tion of all operating sewage disposal systems; the inspection of food handlers, restaurants, nursery schools; and all other matters relating or pertaining to Public Health.


The local Board has actively taken part and supported the newly- formed Northeastern Association of Boards of Health. The purpose of this organization is :


1. To promote and encourage the improvement of the health of the public.


2. To effect a channel of communication between the local Boards of Health and the State Department of Public Health.


3. To promote training opportunities to develop new skills and techniques for more effective service.


4. To encourage support for Public Health objectives among official, voluntary and professional agencies involved in the field of Health, Education and Welfare.


The local Board has worked closely with the State Board of Health and the Northeastern Health District and has attended state and local conferences and seminars to insure the townspeople of the most modern health procedures. We wish to extend our thanks to Dr. Frederick E. Dunham, District Health Officer and his staff for the cooperation, advice and loaning of technical help for consultation and inspection when needed.


Mrs. Welthea Nelson of the Visiting Nurse Association was again appointed Health Nurse for the year 1961-1962. Her assistance on follow- up cases has been extremely valuable.


It was with much regret that the Board accepted at the close of the school year the resignation of Dr. John King because of his retirement. He had ably conducted the Dental Clinic for many years.


46


The Board of Health appointed a committee of Dr. Harold Moses, Dr. Thomas W. Foley and Dr. Louis P. Polsonetti to study and make recommendations for the continuance of the Dental Clinic. It was their recommendation that Dr. Polsonetti be appointed Supervisor of the Dental Clinic.
