Board of Health

The Open Meeting Law requires public bodies to create and approve minutes in a timely manner. A “timely manner” is considered to be within the next three public body meetings or 30 days from the date of the meeting, whichever is later, unless the public body can show good cause for further delay. The Attorney General encourages minutes to be approved at a public body’s next meeting whenever possible. The law requires that existing minutes be made available to the public within ten days of a request, whether they have been approved or remain in draft form. Materials or other exhibits used by the public body in an open meeting must also be made available to the public within ten days of a request. 


The Board of Health is a 3 member elected board in the Town of Norfolk.

Boards of Health are made up of people from every walk of life who care about the well being of their community. They are elected to a 3 year term of office and are given the legal authority to set policies and make regulations to protect the public and environmental health.
