The plumbers have confirmed the existing septic system <br />as being totally within the front yard. The previous owners <br />have informed DeMalignon that the septic system and well have <br />functioned satisfactorily since 1976. Except fcr the pumping last <br />fall, the City has no record of excessive pump outs since 1976. <br />The septic consultant, Exhibit C, stands by his original <br />recommendation as follows: as long as the expansion does not <br />involve additional bedrooms or bathrooms suggesting more intensive <br />use of a substandard septic system, he sees no problem with <br />approvi.,i the addition. <br />Planning Commission must address the more general issue of approving <br />any form of structural expansion for an existing_ principal <br />structure on a severely substandard lot. <br />Area Review of Similar Applications: <br />#645 Dorothy Forcier <br />required = 2 acres <br />existing = .41 acres <br />variance = 1.59 or 75% <br />#533 Steve Curren <br />required = 2 acres <br />existing = .33 acre <br />variance = 1.67 or 78V <br />#683 DeMalignon <br />required = <br />existing = <br />variance = <br />2 acres <br />. 1 3 acres <br />1.87 acres or 93% <br />Planning Commission approved the Curren application by limiting the <br />structural expansion to 1 additional bedroom based on the limited <br />septic area. In the approval of the Forcier application, the <br />principal structure was limited to 3 bedrooms based on alternate <br />and current septic site areas. The comprehensive plan has <br />designated the Crystal Kay neighborhood for sr.wer service sometime <br />w'thn the next 5 to 10 years. <br />
