RESOLUTION APPROVING SANITARY SEWAGE DISPOSAL VARIANCES
FOR RUTH M. AND LINDA SHEARER
RESOLUTION NO.: 16, 96
INTRODUCED BY: Mrs. Carol Pulver
WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mrs. Connie Goedert
WHEREAS, Ruth M. and Linda Shearer previously filed a request
for three (3) variances from certain provisions of the Town of
Queensbury On-Site Sewage Disposal Ordinance, such provisions more
specifically requiring that there be a 150' separation between the
seepage pit and a well or suction line, 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 July 1, 1996, and
WHEREAS, the Town Clerk advises that property owners within
500 feet of the subject property have been duly notified, and
WHEREAS, after discussion at the Town Board Meeting July 1st,
1996, an alternative option was brought forth calling for placement
of the new seepage pit at the location of the existing leaching
system, and the Town Board finds this alternative option does not
constitute a material change warranting re-advertising or a new
public hearing
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED,
a) that due to the nature of the variances, it is felt that
the variations as modified 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 applicants that they 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 Ruth M. and Linda Shearer allowing the
placement of the new seepage pit meeting current installation
standards at the location of the existing leaching system
rather than placing it at the mandated 150' distance(s), on
property situated on Sullivan Place (off Glen Lake Road) Town of
Queensbury, New York, and bearing Tax Map #: Section 38, Block 3,
Lot 7.
Duly adopted this 1st day of July, 1996, by the following
vote:
AYES: Mr. Turner, Mrs. Goedert, Mrs. Pulver, Mrs. Monahan, Mr.
Champagne
NOES: None
ABSENT:None
