Glen Harrington remarked that the Board of Health Regulation states the distance to a well is to be a minimum of 150 feet or greater. The Board cannot grant the well variance to 81 Lighthouse Lane because there is town water available. There is no hardship when a better source of water is offered which is treated and monitored.. Kalliope Egloff made a motion that the Board of Health approve the request for the Board of Health and Title V septic upgrade variances for 81 Lighthouse Lane as follows: 1. A 4' variance, Soil Absorption System to property line (front), for a 6' setback. 2. A 3' variance, pump chamber to property line (side), for a 7' setback. 3. A 5' variance, Soil Absorption System to cellar wall, for a 15' setback. 4. A 2' variance to the 3' maximum cover requirement, for 5' of cover over the Soil Absorption System and pump chamber. The Board of Health denied the request for the 44' variance, Soil Absorption System to the well, for a 106' setback for 81 Lighthouse Lane, because there is no hardship; therefore, no basis for granting the variance. Burton Kaplan seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. Mr. McEntee will submit revised plans indicating the water service for 81 Lighthouse Lane. NEW BUSINESS 1.
