FOR EDWARD D. LOCKHART
RESOLUTION NO.: 9, 96
INTRODUCED BY: Mrs. Carol Pulver
WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mrs. Connie Goedert
WHEREAS, Edward D. Lockhart previously filed a request for a
variance from certain provisions of the Sanitary Sewage Disposal
Ordinance of the Town of Queensbury, such provisions being more
specifically the requirement that there be a 100 foot separation
between an absorption field and well or suction line, and the
requirement that there be a 10' separation between an absorption
field and the property line, and
WHEREAS, Mr. Edward D. Lockhart has indicated a desire to
place the absorption field: 1) 75 feet from the well or suction
line rather than placing it at the mandated 100 foot distance, and
2) 5 feet from the property line rather than the mandated 10 foot
distance, 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 request on May 20, 1996, 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
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Town of Queensbury Local Board of Health
grants the variances to Edward D. Lockhart, allowing the placement
of the absorption field: 1) 75 feet from the well or suction line
rather than placing it at the mandated 100 foot distance, and 2)
5 feet from the property line rather than the mandated 10 foot
distance, on property situated at the end of Dream Lake Road, Town
of Queensbury, New York, and bearing Tax Map #: Section 51, Block
3, Lot 8.
