No provision of section 22-133 shall affect the authority of any town, city or borough to enact ordinances concerning the sale or distribution, within its limits, of milk which may be detrimental to public health. In any town, city or borough where no local system of milk and cream control is provided for by charter, the local director of health or board of health may present, at a meeting of the electors warned and held for such purpose, proposed rules and regulations concerning the inspection of dairies and the production, care, handling, marketing or sale of milk or cream, the protection of the public from the use of milk or cream which may be detrimental to the public health and the granting of licenses to milk dealers. Upon approval by the town, city or borough, such rules and regulations shall be enforced in the town, city or borough by the director of health. Amendments of such rules and regulations shall be made in accordance with the procedure provided for their adoption. Such local directors of health or boards of health may revoke any license granted in accordance herewith after due notice and hearing for violation of any such rules and regulations. Any person who produces, handles, markets or sells milk or cream within the limits of any town, city or borough in which such rules and regulations are in effect, without a license as hereinbefore provided, shall be fined not more than two hundred fifty dollars. Any person aggrieved by the failure of the local director of health or board of health to grant a license in accordance with the foregoing provisions or by the action of such director of health or board in revoking a license may appeal from the action of such director of health or board to the Milk Regulation Board in accordance with the provisions of sections 22-169 and 22-170.
