RESOLUTION SETTING HEARING ON SUTTON’S MARKET PLACE’S
APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE/WAIVER REQUEST FROM SANITARY
SEWER CONNECTION REQUIREMENT SET FORTH IN TOWN CODE
CHAPTER 136 – SEWERS AND SEWAGE DISPOSAL
RESOLUTION NO.: 326, 2005
INTRODUCED BY: Mr. John Strough
WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mr. Roger Boor
WHEREAS, the Queensbury Town Board is authorized by Town Code Chapter 136 to issue
§
variances from 136-44 “Connection to sewers required” which requires Town property owners
situated within a sewer district and located within 250’ of a public sanitary sewer of the sewer district
to connect to the public sewer facilities within one (1) year from the date of notice, and
WHEREAS, Sutton’s Market Place (Sutton’s) has applied to the Local Board of Health for a
§
variance/waiver from 136-44, as Sutton’s has requested a two-year exemption from the Town’s
connection requirements to connect Sutton’s Furniture Store, Toy Cottage and residential house
properties to the Town of Queensbury’s Route 9 Sewer District, as neither the Furniture Store nor Toy
Cottage offers facilities to the public and Sutton’s feels the current one-person facility in each building
is for employee use only, making water usage very minimal, each building has its own 1,000 gallon,
properly functioning and well-maintained septic tank, and so it would not be cost effective to connect
to the Town of Queensbury, and the residential building is located at least 1,500’ from the sanitary
main and has a properly installed and fully operational system in back of the house, all as more fully set
th
delineated in Sutton’s June 17, 2005 letter and application presented at this meeting,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that the Local Board of Health for the Town of Queensbury will hold a hearing
st
on August 1, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. at the Queensbury Activities Center, 742 Bay Road, Queensbury, to
consider Sutton’s Market Place’s sewer connection variance/waiver application concerning the
properties delineated in the preambles of this Resolution and located at 1066 State Route 9,
Queensbury (Tax Map No.: 296.9-1-10), and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Local Board of Health authorizes and directs the Queensbury Town
Clerk to send the Notice of Hearing presented at this meeting to Sutton’s Market Place as required by
law.
