# Whitman Board of Health - September 21, 2026 meeting

The Whitman Board of Health held a meeting on September 21, 2026, where key procurement-related discussions focused on the household hazardous waste program. The board reviewed the recent popup event and discussed transitioning to a permanent hazardous waste depot, which would increase costs by approximately $2,400 initially. The board considered implementing a co-pay system to offset expenses, pending approval from the select board and other towns involved. A motion was passed to support the intermunicipal agreement for the hazardous waste depot and to forward the recommendation to the select board for further action. Additionally, the board discussed budget constraints related to the program and ongoing negotiations with the Department of Public Works for cost sharing. Other topics included updates on health inspections, licensing approvals, and a proposed bylaw to regulate commercial animal sales in town. The meeting concluded with scheduling plans for the next session.
