Good morning H illa rd,
As far as I know, we do not have anyone scheduled to speak on NFG at the next BOH meeting. lt was
my understanding that both Kratom and NFG were being added to the agenda as discussion items
and if people wanted to speak on either item, that would be at your discretion.
l've included Barry on this email in case he has more information on this that may not have been
shared with me?
Thank you and stay safe/warm !

Thank you H illa rd,
We will include the Kratom discussion on the December 1sth BOH meeting agenda.
lf you are not going to be present at the January 5th meeting, we should probably hold off on having discussion on
any of these items without the Chair present. We could put the NFG on a future meeting agenda - maybe the
February 2nd mee$ng?
Please note that there is only one meeting in January due to the holiday on the 19th.
Thank you,
Sara

Subject: Re: December 15th BOH Meeting
You are absolutely correct; there is a significant amount of additional information needed for further
d iscussion of NFG.
I think the Kratom issue is another matter. lt appears the majority of the BOH feels the sale of Kratom
and similar chemicals needs to be controlled. I will put together a regulation draft so we can discuss
and possibly vote on whether to schedule a public hearing. So, please keep the subject of Kratom on
the next agenda.
It is my understanding that only Charles and I have completed our terms on the BOH. We both would
like to remain on the Board. There is one Town resident who has applied for a position on the Board.
Selectboard member, Joyce Flynn, will recommend two people to the Select Board which is scheduled
to vote on her sellection this month.
I will not be available for a possible Jan. 5th meeting. This might be of no significance if l'm not
selected to continue on the Board.
Thank,
Hillard

Good afternoon H illa rd,
As a follow-up to the December 1st meetjng, I understand there are several items that require additional
discussion and follow-up. lt was recommended that Kratom and Nicolne be included as discussion items on the' December 15th agenda.
I would like to request that these items be postponed to the January 5th meeting agenda to allow our office
sufficient time to gather the necessary information and provide the Board with a comprehensive overview for
further discussion. I am also requesting this extension because we are in the full swing of processing all Board
of Health application renewals (all that currently expire f2l3f/2025), and we are working to balance this
workload while compiling the information needed for these agenda items.
Please let me know if this adjustment is acceptable.
Thank you,
