MINUTES OF A PLANNING CO^aSSION MEETING HELD WKOl 7, 1977 - PAGE 4 <br />•He agreed that the rest of the area could be Ha soil if a <br />mmicipality so desired. He further stated that you could <br />build on Ha soil, but he wouldn't want his house and base* <br />ment on Ha soil. <br />The Mayor asked Mr. Anderson if our ordinance were to be <br />modified, could we make the statement that you must have <br />two acres of dry buildable land (excludes all the marsh <br />areas) and of that acreage there must be a certain percen­ <br />tage (25-301) of the following classifications of soil <br />%diich would exclude Ha to design a septic system? Short <br />of that, if the lot is totally Ha, do you feel we would be <br />on thin ice to say it would be allowable to create a sub­ <br />division with one lot being totally on Ha soil? Mr. <br />Anderson reconmended that this lot be cut out and maybe <br />be divided up between the two lots on either side of it. <br />When asked if we should prohibit holding tanks Mr. <br />Anderson's reply was yes. Ibey are quite expensive and <br />have to be chedced closely. He felt if you have an exist­ <br />ing problem and a holding tank is the only solution, fine; <br />but don't create a new s^division under these circum­ <br />stances. <br />The yellow booklet which he handed out.
