BOH Variance Request
Dear John:
Submitted for your distribution and review are nine sets each of three (3) Board of Health
wastewater system variance applications. Each property is a single family residence located in the
Lake George waterfront zoning district(WR). The following summarizes each of the properties and
associated variance requests.
Rubrecht—33 Honeysuckle Lane
This property was before the BOH previously (Feb. 2021) and received necessary variances for an
onsite system using an ETU and pumped, pressurized dispersal to an absorption field. The Owner
obtained construction estimates from local contractors and decided against this option due to what
he felt was too great an expense. He is now opting for a holding tank system. In addition to a
variance for the use of holding tanks,variances are required for separation distances to a
neighboring well.
Markert—390 Cleverdale Road
This property is a small lot out near the north end of Cleverdale. It is approximately 5,000 sf in size
with no more than 86' in depth (road side to shoreline). The.existing field is approximately 35'from
the lake. We are proposing an ETU system with a'pumped, pressurized dispersal field. The
associated treatment tanks are between the house and the road and the field is in the northwest
corner. Numerous variances are required due to the standard setbacks to property line and to the
dwelling. The more significant variance is the shoreline setback to the absorption field.
O'Neill—85 Pilot Knob Road
This property is currently on a holding tank system. At the time of that BOH approval (2014)the
O'Neills didn't have enough suitable land to have use of an onsite absorption field. Recently they
were able to obtain additional contiguous land in which to propose a new absorption field area. The
system will require pumping up to the new field located approximately 325'from the lake. A
variance is required as the required force main piping will need to be installed in an area that is less
than the required 10'from-a property line.
