To: Jeanne Mabusth, Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />From: Steve Weckman <br />Date: April 5, 1991 <br />Subject: Septic System Evaluation for the Proposed Addition at <br />3700 Bayside Road <br />SYSTEM SIZE AND CONDITION <br />The existing septic system was installed in 1970 and a <br />permit was issued. The tanks and drainfield are believed to be <br />undersized, but little is known regarding the system <br />construction. It is expected that the system met the City Code <br />at the time of installation but does not meet the current <br />Code. Inspections since 1982 have revealed no evidence that <br />septic system is not functioning properly. <br />The proposed addition to the house is not expected to have <br />an adverse impact on the septic system. The addition will not <br />encroach on the septic system as the expansion will be to the <br />north and the system is to the southwest of the house. The <br />addition consists of a family room and a loft area only. As the <br />expansion does not indicate the addition of a bedroom, the system <br />is not expected to encounter any increase in usage. If at some <br />time in the future the loft area is converted to a legal bedroom, <br />the septic system would have to be reevaluated at that time. <br />The septic system should continue to function satisfactorily <br />based on current usage and system condition, therefore no system <br />upgrades should be required. <br />lsv <br />ff
