MINUTES March 23, 2000 6 BOARD OF HEALTH Mr. Mitrokostas also indicated that this increase in seating for outdoors would be from May 15 to October 15 due to the weather. It isn't economically feasible to have outdoor seating any other time of the year. Mr. McQuaid stated that he is waiting for written confirmation from Brian Dudley of the DEP before he can sign the building permit application. Mr. Doherty motioned to grant the additional 40 seats for John's Pond Center from May 15th through October 15th pending written DEP approval to reduce the flow calculation from 35 gallons per seat to 20 gallons per seat based on the usage of paper products instead of china and with the stipulation that Mr. Mitrokostas provides copies of regular inspection reports for the grease trap and septic tank. Mr. Cram seconded the motion. Motion passed. 6. Revised Subdivision Plan - Harbor Homes Applicant has submitted revised plans showing the new location of wells which are no longer down gradient of the septic systems and which also show town water mains and water connections only if necessary. Mr. McQuaid stated that the applicant is aware that they will not be given an occupancy permit until they connect to Town Water if it is available. Mr. Doherty motioned to approve the subdivision plans as submitted. Mr. Cram seconded the motion. Motion passed. 7. otic plans - 40 Popponesset Island Road Mr. McQuaid stated that there is no variance requested. However, the plan shows five bedrooms, the assessor's office lists it as a three-bedroom house. There is no denitrification unit being proposed. This is a voluntary septic system upgrade according to the engineer. This property is not located in a Zone II area. Mr. McQuaid is suggesting that the engineer or the applicant prove that they have five existing bedrooms by having Ms. Warden or Mr. McQuaid walk through the existing house and determine the actual number of bedrooms. If the house does have five bedrooms, Mr. McQuaid can approve the plans as submitted. If there aren't five bedrooms, then Mr. McQuaid can ask the applicant to come before the Board to explain why this project would not need a denitrification unit. Mr. Doherty questioned the depth to groundwater at this location and was told it is 6.3'to the bottom of the leaching to the groundwater. 8. Emergency Failure Certifications: 36 Bayberry Drive Ms. Warden indicated that the leach pit is full and the installation of two 500- gallon drywells with 3' stone and a new distribution box is necessary. Board members forwarded their signatures to the Emergency Failure Certification form.
