Gaffron, Asst Planning 6 Zoning Administrator <br />Date:July 16, 1992 <br />Subject: Stubbs Bay Potential Hook-up Problems - Well <br />Setbacks/Lot Line Encroachments <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibt A - List of Potential Problem Hook-ups by Address <br />and Nature <br />Exhibit B - Diagrams <br />Of 125 existing residences expected to connect into the <br />Stubbs Bays sewer, 24 (list attached) may have significant <br />problems meeting well setbacks. <br />The required setback between wells and air tested sewer <br />lines and services is 20'. For non-air tested sewer lines, the <br />well setback is 50'. <br />I have been unable to find any lot line or house setback <br />requirements for a building sewer either in the Zoning Code or <br />the Plumbing Code. The Uniform Plumbing Code, which we have not <br />adopted, indicates there is no lot line setback requirement other <br />than being clear of the lot line. In some cases, there are <br />properties in Stubbs Bay that might need to encroach on lit <br />lines. <br />Given the interesting letter faxed to us by Cindy Harrer, it <br />would probably be prudent to review each individual situation and <br />verify on site which connections absolutely cannot meet the well <br />setback. We can then contact Dan Wilson at the Minnesota Health <br />Department's Well Management Unit to take these as a group to the <br />Health Department for possible variance review. <br />I will set up a meeting with Harlan, John and Bruce to <br />review these and initiate the variance process.
