FOR EDWARD D. LOCKHART
RESOLUTION NO.: 3, 1992
INTRODUCED BY: Mr. Michel Brandt
WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mrs. Susan Goetz
WHEREAS, Mr. Edward D. Lockhart previously filed a request for
five (5) variances from certain provisions of the Sanitary Sewage
Disposal Ordinance of the Town of Queensbury, such provisions being
more specifically those requiring that there be a:
1) 150' separation between the seeepage pit and the well;
2) 10' separation between the seepage pit and the property
line;
3) 100' separation between the seepage pit and a stream,
lake or water course; and
WHEREAS, a notice of public hearing was given in the official
newspaper of the Town of Queensbury and a public hearing was held
in connection with the variance requests on January 20, 1992, and
WHEREAS, the Town Clerk advises that property owners within
500 feet of the subject property have been duly notified,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED,
a) that due to the nature of the variances, it is felt that
the variations will not be materially detrimental to the
purposes and objectives of this Ordinance or to other
adjoining properties or otherwise conflict with the
purpose and objectives of any plan or policy of the Town
of Queensbury;
b) that the Local Board of Health finds that the granting
of the variances is necessary for the reasonable use of
the land and that the variances are granted as the
minimum variances which would alleviate the specific
unnecessary hardship found by the Local Board of Health
to affect the applicant; and
c) that the Local Board of Health imposes a condition upon
the applicant that he must also secure the approval of
the New York State Department of Health, and
d) that the Local Board of Health also imposes a condition
that the applicant sign a disclaimer, and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Town of Queensbury Local Board of Health
grants the variances to Mr. Edward D. Lockhart, allowing the
placement of the seepage pit:
1) 118' from his neighbor's well, rather than placing it at
the mandated 150' distance;
2) 80' from his own well, rather than placing it at the
mandated 150' distance;
3) 142' from his neighbor's well, rather than placing it at
the mandated 150' distance;
4) 6' from his property line, rather than placing it at the
mandated 10' distance;

rather than placing it at the mandated 100' distance;
on property situated on the south side of Dream Lake Road,
