Minutes of the September 1, 1992 meeting were approved.
I. Old Business
A. Recycling Bench
The bench has been completed and is scheduled to be
transported to the West Side Public Works garage.
Public Works will place signs on the bench and it
will then be turned over to the Park District for
placement. Since it is so late in the year, the
Board of Health thought it might be best to wait for
placement in the Spring.
II. Routine Reports

122 children were given 285 shots at the 09/23/92

There was some discussion regarding the consent form.
