MAYFIELD - The Town Board Thursday passed a law banning the use ofoutdoor wood boilers during the summer months.
The law was developed in response to several residents whocomplained that smoke from outdoor wood boilers was severelyaffecting their quality of life. It says residents cannot burn anyoutdoor wood boiler from May 30 to Sept. 1 unless they are grantedan exception by the town code enforcer, Mike Stewart.
At a public hearing on the law Thursday, about 40 residents turnedout to give a variety of opinions on the subject.
Resident Dawn Ryan said she appreciates the town taking steps tolimit wood boiler use but said more needs to be done.
"We need a moratorium on future installations to allow for moreinvestigation," she said, calling the smoke produced by boilers"poisonous."
Ryan said wood boilers are unique because there are few safety andenvironmental restrictions placed on them. She said she would liketo see the state enact a law governing their use.
Resident Paul Chapin, who said he owns a wood boiler, said a lawcould have been avoided if people simply talked to one another.
"You start off by being a good neighbor," he said. "You talk toyour neighbor if you have a problem."
