The decisions allow several Ipswich properties to upgrade or modify failing or aging septic systems under specified conditions. At 86 Town Farm Road, the Board waived a new Title 5 inspection for a home addition because it will remain a two-bedroom dwelling with no expected increase in septic-system flow. No tobacco-sales regulation was changed at this meeting; proposed revisions will be considered at the June 1 public hearing.
