rSanitary Sewerage Facllitte:. ror Subdivisions Page 2 5. If septic. tanks are accepted, they should only be accepted if the lot will accom- modate all other amenities such as patios, swimming pools, trees and landscaping and accessory structures such as garages, utility sheds and concrete driveways. The swimming pool consideration should be based on the price range of the nouses to be developed out strong emphasis must be placed on second and third ownership in the case of a swimming pool. Under no circumstances should any new land develop- ment be approved unless tine aforementioned considerations can be met. o. In new land developments It would appear that 20,000± square foot lots are not feasible If houses are to be built in the upper medium price range to be served by individual sewage disposal systems. Therefore, I strongly recommend that developers be discourage from submitting proposals of this type because It will result In future problems that would have to be solved by local Health District Staff. 7. An alternative would be to declare a moratorium on that section of the revised Rules and Regulations governing new land developments and operate under the initial Instal- lation of an individual sewage disposal system plus an area for 50% expansion of the disposal system. However, this will only prolong the eventual problem In areas where sanitary sewerage systems are not projected until the year 2020 or longer. My conclusion is to either create larger lots In subdivisions served by individual disposal systems or create smaller lots to be served by package treatment plants wits ground disposal, intermittent dosage of disposal fields and an area set aside for the exclusive use of sewage disposal for 200% expansion of the disposal system. This expansion area could be developed as open green space or small park.
