I. Title V Variances Requests
1. Maxson, 915 Chequessett Neck Road, Map 19, Parcel 102: Septic Upgrade. John Schaible of Coastal Engineering represented the applicant and gave an overview of the project. The two cesspools are located close to the bank and will be filled in. The well will be relocated upland. The proposed variances are from the local regulations for setbacks to the coastal bank. There will be no changes to the structure. The project has been approved by the Conservation Commission. John O’Hara asked if they had looked at innovative systems, and John Schaible stated that the proposal meets the requirements and the marine
resource separation is achieved. Lezli moved to approve Costal Engineering Co., Inc. plan C2.1.1 dated 1/16/07 and grant the five variances requested in the 2/16/07 letter for the upgrade of a septic system to serve a three bedroom structure in compliance with Nitrogen Loading Limitations subject to the following conditions:
