BOARD OF HEALTH
Minutes of November 9, 1983 Meeting
The Board of Health Meeting commenced after a brief meeting as County
Cbmmissioners. All members were present. Minutes of the November 2, 1983
meeting were accepted as typed, and reading of the same was waived on
a motion by Skip Cabot, seconded by Bud Clute, so voted.
Variance Request from Madaket Septic System Regulations: Existng Dwelling
on Starbuck Road: Clark Whitcomb, owner: Letter read from the Health
Inspector Richard L. Ray recommending that the Board grant the following
variance for the relocation of a failed septic system:
Madaket regulation #1 states that the distance between well and leach facilities
will be 150 feet. Current distances from the leach facility are 50 feet from
his own well and 105 feet from an abutter's. The proposed relocation effects
a "substantial improvement in distances between all wells and leach facilities
in the immeidate area."
He further wrote although not strictly adherant to the Madaket Regulations due
to the restriction of lot size, I feel this is a marked improvement over the
existing system and satisfies the environmental intent of the Madaket
regulations.
Skip Cabot moved approval, seconded by Bud Clute, so voted.
Subdivision Approval: 2 lots on Oakland Street: Lindsey Perry, owner:
Letter read fr.om Health Inspector Richard L. Ray with the following observations
on the above-noted subdivision:
1. Both lots are acceptable for septic system application.
2. Both lots should be reperced when definitive dwelling locations
are selected.
3. Leach trenches should be installed to minimize potential nitrate contam-
ination of the water level.
Bernard Grossman moved approval of Mr. Ray's recommendations, seconded by
Bud Clute, so voted.
Bernard Grossman then moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Bud Clute,
so voted. Meeting adjourned at 7:45 p.m.
