MINUTES October 13, 1994 4 BOARD OF HEALTH only approved by this Board but by the State as well." "There is no trade-off on linear distances." "There was also a vertical separation issue where the bottom of your leaching facility must be 4' above the ground water level." "So, until these issues are cleared up the Board would not be inclined to grant any variances or approve a system to build on that lot." "I do have the understanding that it does not preclude you from building another type of structure there that would not require wastewater disposal."

"We purchased all the circled lots from the bank about two years ago" (shown to the Board). "We started building these lots and are down to two lots ( #7 & 49 Windermere Way), whose topography is terrible, they slope down which is one of the reasons why they are the last lots to sell." "When we went in there and originally did the septic plan that Bob did on July 21 st and July 24th, we went in there and as with these lots here assumed there was town water." "Come to find out Peter Fitzpatrick, who works for me, used to work for Jim Gill said, "You know something there is no town water down there"."
