Mr. Lucas said he :did not know the volume, but the well, which was drilled without permits is considered inadequate by the Environmental Health Dept. Water could be made available for the site, but would require the drilling of a new well.

As a result of the discussions additional conditions were suggested. Commissioner Lambert was concerned that more activities besides just weddings might take place on the property. Mr. Lucassaid that Conditions 2 and 3 should cover concerns regarding additional activities. Commissioner Lynch suggested modifying Condition 7 to include the wording, "or one portable toilet per each one hundred people, whichever is greater." Also he would_ suggest adding conditions similar to those suggested by Mr. Lucas to require No Parking signs on the public road and that the insurance name Butte County as "also insured Comm issio is r Lambert asked if there is a limit on the attendance at weddings`: Mr. Lucas said there are no limits, but it is riot expected that there would be more than 100 people at a wedding; It was moved by Commissioner Cage, seconded by Commissioner Lynch, and carried unanimously for approval of the Use Permit with the Findings and Conditions as listed in the Agenda iReport dated October 3, 1995; with the additional 3 conditions submitted at this meeting by Staff (and to add Butte County as an "also insured in the liability ins raric^ condition, and to modify Condition 7 with the wording, "or one portable toilet per people, whichever is greater.")

Mogan, Planning Manager BY: Stephen Lucas, Associate Planner„ ry DATE: October 3, 1995 REQUiEST: Use Kermit for John BeAolo on AI?N 011-520-015 (95-93): A request for a Use Permit to allow outdoorweddings, receptions, and other, mee-ing lel aced functions on a 19.6, acre parcel :located on the west side of .Butte' Greek and the east side of Centerville Toad approximately 300 it from the str„el bridge in Butte Creels Canyon. The property is zoned FR -5 (Foothill Recreational acre min.) and FR 16 (Foothill recreational 10 acre min.), This project is located in Supervisorial District 5. RELATED 17'EMS Nene FOR: Planning Convmssion Meeting of November 9, 199 ABSTRACT, This application is for a Use Permit to allow outdoor weddings, receptions, and imeetings. The proposed use is conditionally consistent with the kit 5/FR 10 zoning and is a secondary use in the Agricultural Residential and Grazing & Of= Y ands General Plan designations. Staff recommends approval with c mditions and findings contained in this, report. PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS: This project is a 'Use lPernfit request to allow outdoor weddings, receptions and other meeting related functions on 19.6 acres of laud located on the east side of Centerville Road and on the west side of Butte Creek approximately 300 ft south of the steel bridge at 13386 Centerville Road in Butte Creek Canyon. Aowss is from Centerville Road, Presently there is a 5,796 sq. ft. home located on the propefty that is served by an individual septic tank/leachfield system and'a private well. The proposal will however, utilize portable chemical toilets 'and bottled water for ,guests. Additional existing site inipro cements include apaved circular driveway, a large gravel parking area, a large patio area,, a stage platform, a gravel beach along `Jhe creek, several storage buildings and considerable landscaping. The surrounding properties are all fairly large in size with parcels ranging from 1.5 acres to 40 acres. The 1.5 acre parcel is the smallest in the area; generally the parcels are, 5 acres or larger. There are few residences in the area, the closest one is located approximately 500 ft to the west on the adjacent parcel. There are no structures on parcels located' to the east or north. ANALYSIS: The proposed use has,a s ncerms that must he addressed. in order T number issues and co to accurately assess the I project. These issues/concems3 are land use, traffic, environmental hetrlth concerns, and the potential impact to Butte Creek, w Butte County Department of Develct,)Tw t Services - Plarnting Division AGENDA ffEM I -and Use 'Me project site is dually zoned FR -5 (Foothill Recreational -5 ac. ruin) and FR -10 (Foothill Recreational - 10 acre min.) which allows commercial outdoor recreational facilities on parcels not less than 5 acres as conditional uses. The site is designated by the Butte County General Plan as Moth Agricultural Residential and Grazing & Open bands, these designations allow for outdoor recreation facilities as Secondaq Uses. The project substantially conforms to bath ;the General Plan and zoning. The general area surroun0a ng this site consists of rural residential homesites and rugged opens spitces. The proposed functions will occur between the rear of the house and the creek with parking only to the front of the house. 'There is one small older home located approximately 500 #t. to the west of the property that is screened from sight by dense vegetation and separated by a chain link fence. The 1emain ng three sides of the site are characterized by dense vegetation, the -creek .and a steep cliff. The proposed use is; unlikely to create either a noise or visual nuisance to any other property owners because of the isolated location of 'the site. The potential conflicts for this project have been thoroughly addressed in the Initial Study and barb mitigation measures and conditions have been developed to minimize the impacts presented by the project. The conditions include limiting the hours of operation to between 9.00 am. and 11:00 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and officially recognized County holidays, restricting the use of amplified music, and requiring all functions to be conducted to the rear of the house where all noise and visual impacts can be screened. Road and Traffic ima,Icts The vroposed use will, utilize Honey Rim Road and Centerville Road for access. The expected number of vehicle trips generaitedby this use will be between 40 and 60 trips per day of use, during some functions these numbers may be considerably lower. This is not significant because the applicant will only use this site on weekends and holidays and primarily during the summer months. The cumulative annual impact of the traffic generated by this use is incremental compared to the average daily traffic counts found on Centerville Road and lbney Run Road. An Environmental impact Report was prepared for the Butte Creekside Subdivision located on Honey Run Road and it was determined that the Level of Service on Toney Run Load was above .Level "C;°, the minimum County standard. The traffic count were done during peak hour on weekdays, while this project will be limited to use only during weekends when traffic counts are significantly lower. An allied issue .pertaining to this project is that these roads are narrow at spots and during summer weekends can be used by large number of people conducting recreational pursuits aloag Butte Creek. The 35 mph roads have been the top:c rf much discussion concerning the safety' 0f people driving' at excessive speeds and often alcohol use is a serious factor. The proposal will have the potential to place an additional 4.0 to 60 vehicle trips on these roads during the weekends, trips that would likely arrive at a common time and depart at various intervals. Considering the hour of the expected functions are likely to place the majority of guests at the site when others are using the creek elsewhere, ,it does not appear that there will be a significant overlap of vehicular traffic along Centerville Road or Honey Run Road. a Butte Cowto of Developnunt Services- Planning Division IN 2 i Farvironmentai Health concerns The project has been reviewed by the avironmiental Health Division OHM) and it was determined that the on --site existing septic system and well not adequate for this use. The well was installed without proper permits and the septic system is too small to accommcdate any number of guests. The applicant has met with County Counsel and an acceptable compromise was developed in the form of a condition to provide bottled potable water anal portable toilets. However, should the. Planning Commission have concern with the proposed compromise a reliable, permanent water source and functioning rest room facilities could be required. The use of bottled water and portable toilets may only perpetuate an unnecessary situation and provide logistical difficulties for the applicant who must prevent guests from using the existing plumbing on-site. Future improvements of the facilities are possible that would correct this situation and render the following conditions unnecessary. The EHD will require that the applicant provide guests uwith tilize the table well. `Vater either in the ford drinking of bottled water or some other manner that will not ut7h 1. Portable chemical toilets will also be required to be placed on-site under contract with a portable toilet provider and in a manner acceptable to the'.EhID. The Planning Division will require that the applicant maintain, and submit a copy of a rental agreement/contract with a portable toilet provider that will be in effect for all functions. The applicant will also be required to post signs at all entrances to the home stating that the inside facilities are not available for use for any reason. Butte Creek The project will utilize an area between the existing house and Butte Creels for the proposed functions. 'This area includes a stage, gravel beach and a large grassy area. The project has the potential to cause some minor.erosion on the west bank of the creek and possible erosion on the east bank if that area were to be developed for any uses. The west bank is presently developed to its fullest extent and only significant human use would lead to any impacts. The east bank of the creek is in its natural state and much more susceptible to damage. To mitigate these concerns the project is conditioned to disallow all facilities, seating areas and other intensive uses within 10 feet of the west bank and restrict all use of the east bank entirely. Other concerns The area of Butte Creek canyon is designated by the Butte County Fire Department/CDF as being a high fire hazard area. The proposal does not include the development of any new structures or other permanent improvements to the land that may result in a fire hazard. However; the increased use of the property by attendees of special outdoor events is likely to increase the potential for fire resulting from the careless use and disposal of flammable tobacco products, 'rhe use of torches for lighting, the use of outnt �)r barbecues and other potentially combustible products. To reduce the potential hazard from these items the applicant will be required to demarcate areas for safe smoking and provide adequate disposal areas for discarded cigarettes and the like. Furthermore, the use of barbecues and other flammable items should be limited to a developed area a minimum of 30 feet from any flammable vegetation and the applicant shall provide a minimum of two 100 ft. hoses with adequate water supplies by °CDF standards to provide a reasonable method of small fire suppression. im Butte County Department of Developtnent 4Services Planning Division EXHIBIT "All USE PERMIT BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION DATE.

The properly is zoned FR -5 (Foothill Recreational 5 acre min,) and f7R 10 (Foothill Recreational10 acre min.). iii Ln;`lq'ED This project is located in Sulmrvisorial. District 5. ,I ITEMS: None FOR: Planing Commission Afeeting of Novenher 9, 1995 ABSTR ACT: This application is for a Use Permit to allow outdoor weddings, receptions, and meetings. The proposed use is conditionally consistent with the FR-5/FR-10 zoning and is a secondary use in the Agricultural Residential and Grazing & Open Lands General Pla�i designations. Staff recommends approval with conditions and findings contained in this repoii PROJECT CH4RACTERISTICS: This project is a Use Permit request to allow outdoor weddings, receptions and other meeting related functions on 19.6 acres of land located on the ear'.t side of Centerville Road and 'on the west side of Butte Creek approximately 300 it. south of the steel bridge at 13386 Centerville Road in ;Butte Creek Canyon. Access is . Min Centerville Road. Presently there is a 5,796 sq. & home located on the properly that is served by an individual septic; tank/leachfield system and aprivate well. The proposal wM however, utilize porde cheinical toilets and bottled water for area, a large patio area, astage platform, a gravel beach along the creek, several a large gravel parking nests. Additional existing site improvements includa a paved circular drivew g storage buildings and considerable landscaping. The surrounding properties are all fairly large in size with parcels ranging from 1.5 ,acres to 40 acres. The 1.5 acre parcel is tike smadest in the area; generally the parcels are 5 acres or ,Iargei;: There are few residences in the area; the closest one is located approximately 500 ft. to the west on the adjacent parcel. There are no sthictures on parcels located to the east or north. ANALYSIS: The,propmed use has a number of issues and concerns that must, be addressed in order to accurately assess the project. There issues/concerns are land use, traffic environmental health concenls, and the potential impact to Butte Creek. T �w Butte Cowdy Departinentof Are a opm-nt Services - Planning Dh)ision N I AGENDA MM lmd Use The project site is dual,;,y zoned FR -3 (Foothill Recreational -5 ac. min) and Fl -10 (Foothill Recreational - 10 acre min.) which allows commercial outdoor recreational. facilities on parcels not less than 5 acres as conditional uses. The site is designated by the Butte County General Plan as bath 04 icultural Residential and C Mdng & Open Lands, these designations allow for outdoor recreation facilities as Secondary Uses. The project substantially conforms to both the General Ilan and zoning. 'The general area surround!ng this site consists of rural residential homesites and ragged ripens spaces. The propmed functions will occur between the rrax of the house and the creek with parking only to the front of the house, 'Where is one small older home located approximately 500 ft. to the west of the property that is screened from sight by dense vegetation and separated by a chain link fence. ;`The remaining three sides of the site are characterized by dense vegetation, the creek and a steep cliff. The prop�c use is unlikely to create either a n€�ise or vi" Dual nuisance to anv other property owners because of the isolated location of the site. The potential cor,Flicts for this project have been thoroughly addressed in the Initial Study and both mitigation me&sures and condition& have been developed to minimize the impoets presented by the project. The conditions include limiting the hours of operation to between 4:00 am. and 1,1:00 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and officially recognized County holidays, restricting the use of amplified music, and requiring ng an functions to be conducted to the rear of the house where all noise and visual impacts can be screened. Road ar g 'Traffic impacts The proposed use will utilize Honey Run Road. and Centerville Road for access. The expected number of vehicle trips generated by this use will be between 40 and 60 trips per day of use, during some • r. This is not signifi an because the applicant will functions these numbers may be considerably lope � g months. The c�umulati�re only use this sitr. on weekends and holidays and primarily duan the summer annual, impact of the traffic, generated by this use is rncr�ementai compared to tie average daily traffic count, foand on Centerville Road and Honey Faun Road. An Environmental impact 1ieport was prepared for the Butte Creekside Subdivislon located on Honey Run F.oad and it was determined that the Level of Service on Honey lRaw. Road was above Level °C", the minimum County standard. The traffic counts were donne during peak hover on weekdays, while this project will be limited to use oily during weekends when traffi counts a?re sigificantiy lower. �W allied issue pertaining toy this project is that these reads are narrow at spots and during summer weekends can be r1sed by large number of peopic conducting recreational pursuits along Butte Creek. The 35 mph toads have l�m;n the topic of much ous�factoroT'he�r proposal will have the of people driving torpg at P excessive speeds and often alcohol use is a seri ace ex 1P 1� an additional '40 to 60 veWicle trips on these roads daA)g the weekends, trips that would likely arrive at a common time and depart at various intervals. f'onsidering the hours of the expected functions are likely to place the maiority of guests at the site when others are nsing the crec'c elsewhere, it doe not appear ;g p g or Roney Run a ar that there will be z� sr nrficant overly of vehicular traffic along Centerville Road Rcad. ---- � Barite County. Department of Deveropnaent Services - Plranrsang i7�i.Visiorc � 2 Environmental Health concerns The project has been reviewed by theEnvironmental Health Division (EBD) and it was determined that the on-site eitisting septic system and well are not adequate for this use. The well was. installed without proper permits and the septic systen► is too small to accommodate auy number of guests. The applicant has met with County Counsel and an acceptable compromise was developed in the form of a condition to provide' bottled potable water and portable toilets. Iawever, shoutd the Planning Commission have concern with the proposed compromise a,. reliable, permanent water source and functioning rest room, facilities could be required. 'The use of bottled water and portable toilets may only perpetual an unnecessary situa9ion and provide logistical difficulties for the applicant who must prevent guests from using the existing plumbing on -sit` Future improvements of the facilities are possible that wo,.'I correct this situation and render the following conditions unnecessary. The EFID will require that the applicant provide guests with potable drinking water either in the form of bottled water or some other manner that will not utilize the on-site well. Portable chemical toilets will also be required to be placed on-site tinder contract with a p )rtable toilet provider and in a manner acceptable to the FHD. The Planning DivisioL will require Haat the applicant maintain, and submit a copy of a rental agreement/contract with a portable toiler: provider that will be in effect for all functious. The applicant will also be required to post signs at all entrances to the home stating that the inside facilities are not available for use for any reason. Butte Creek The project will utilize an area between the existing house and Butte Creek for the proposed functions. This area includes a stage, gravel Mach and a large grassy area. The project has the potential to cause some minor erosion on the west bank of the creek and possible erosion on the east bank if that area were to be developed ,for any uses. The west bank in presently developed to its fullest extent and only significant human use, would lead to any impacts. The east bank of the geek is in its natural state and much more susceptible to damage. To mitigate these concerns the project is conditioned to disallow all facilities, seating areas and other intensive uses within 10 feet of the west bank and restrict all use of the east bank entirely: Qher concerns The area of Butte Creek canyon is designated by the Butte Colanty Fire Department/CDF as being a high fire hazard area. The proposal does not include the development of any new structures or other permanent improvements to the land that may -result in a fire hazard. However, the increased use of the property by attendees of special outdoor events is likely to increase the potential for fire resulting from the careless use and disposal of flammable tobacco product,, the use of torches for lighting, the use of outdoor barbecues and other potentially combustible products. To reduce the potential hazard from these items the applicant will be required' to demarcate areas for safe smoking and provide adequate disposal areas for discarded cigarettes and the like. Furthermore, the use of barbecues and other, . developed minimum 0 feet from any flammable :flammable stems should be `ltmated to a minimum o t�� e) IOOm%t�ases with adequatewater supplies �Fvegetation and the a iacant : hall roux by standards to providle a reasonable method of small fire suppression. w Butte County Deparrt"rd of Developr nt Ser asses - Planning Division � .enow EXHIBIT "N' USE PERMIT BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION DATE: (Certified Mail Roc.)

The parcel encompasses two zones, FR -5 (Foothill Recreation -5 acre minimum) on the west side of the creek and . FRA 0 (Foothill Recreation -10 acre minimums) on the east side of the creek.' 'rwo General Plan designations are found on the parcel, Agricultural Residential and Grazing & Open Lands. The property is bisected by Butte Creek with approximately 5 acres on the west side of the creek and approximately 14 acres on the east side of the creek. The primary use in this 'area is rural residential dwellings. Access to the site will be from Centerville Road via a driveway easement across the adjoining parcel owned by Butte County. Significant riparian habitat exists. along Butte Creek and the parcel is generally characterized by thick vegetation. Additional project description and area description can be found in the data sheet at the end of this document. U. EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Earth. Will the proposal result in: I a. Unstable earth conditions or changes in Ideologic substructures? Yes No -,-& _Maybe Response: The proposal will not require, any excavation or other subsurface alteration of the earth. Therefore, the project will not create any unstahie earth conditions or result in changes to geologic substructures. Mitigation: None required. b. Disruptions, displacements, compaction or overcovering of the soil? Yes No X Maybe'_ dagse: This proposal may vesuit in some soil disruption, displacement, compactio, n and overcovering of the site as a result of development of additional gravel parking areas and the installation of landscaping. ,This overcovering will represent a minor percentage of the ;property and will not impact the character of the site or result in any significant soil impacts. Mitigation: None vaquired, c. Substantial change in topography or �surface relief features? Yes No X Maybe , Response: Thos proposal to allow weddings and meetings will not significantly affect topography or ground relief features because the property is nearly level and the project will utilize existing facilities without any other topographical alterations to the site. Miti-nation: None required. Butte County Development Sarvices 'Department ® Planning Division ,m 1 _. Project; Bessolo, !rile #95-93 d, The destruorion, covering or modification of any unique 90ologic or physical features? Yes __.,_.No X Niayhe _ Response; The project does not involve the alteration of theroe m P P rty in any significant physical o�geologic manner because the proposed use will utilize P rze a i� P existing trn facilities • ars. proposed, g_and no new facilities Mitigation: None required. e. Any substantial increase in wind or water erosion of soils, either on or off-site?Yes No .,Maybe X Response: The proposal is not expected to cause any substantial erosion of the soils because the project will utilize existing facilities and no new development is proposed that would result in significant soil disruption. Butte Creek does bisect the Property and functions will occur near and along the existing bank. There is currently a gravel beach aroa that is used for access to the creek, however, human use of the bark area may lead to some loll eresion in this area that may lead to increased erosion and impacts to water quality within the creek on site. Additionally, the property on the east side of the creek is undeveloped and may have a greater potential to erode do to unstable slopes. To avoid the potential effects of erosion caused by slope instability, the project will be restricted from utilizing the property on the east side of the creek and all functions shall be restricted from occurring closer than 10 ft. along the western;bank of the creels. Mitigation: All facilities, seating areas, and other intensive uses shall not be allowed within 10 ft. of the western bank of Butte Creek and ali uses associated with this Use Permit shall be restricted from the east side of Butte Creek ,entirNo new development or alteration of the property shall be permitted in connection with this Use Permit. All events, functions and meetings shall utilize existing facilities. Any alterations to the site) designed for, or intended to be used for permitted activities, shall require:a new Use Permit and subsequent review by, the Planning Commission. f. Changes in deposition or erosion of beach sands, or changes in siltation,deposition or erosion which may modify the channel of a river or stream or the bed of any lake? Yes No _XMaybe Response: Butte Creek traverses the property which could be affected by erosion or siltation from activities associated with the propozed use. Erosion impacts are discussed more fully in item 1e above. The mitigation measures proposed under item 1e will reduce the erosion impacts to a less than significant level and no modification to the stream channel on site will occur. If the project applicant proposes any construction within the streambed'in the future, a strearnbed alteration permit must be obtained from the California Department of Pish,and Came,. Miti a_g tion_ None required. g, Loss of prime agriculturally productive soils outside designated urban areas? Yes No X _Maybe Response., This proJect site does not contain prime agricultural soils. Mitigation: None required. h: Exposure of people or property to geologic hazards such as earthquakes, landslides, mud -slides, ground failure, or similar hazards? Yes No X Maybe Response: The Butte County Seismic Safety Element does not Indicate any faults in the area and the risk of ground rupture in the event of a seismic event is remote. However, all of Butte County is still classified as a Moderate. Earthquake Intensity Zone VIII and potential ground shaking is possible. No flew structures are proposed and all existing structures were required to conform to uniform Building Code standards which provide adequate protection to occupants in case of seismic activity. Mitigation: Mone required. BUIte County Development Services Department a Manning Division e Project: ,Bessolo, File A)5-93 2. AFY Will the proposal result in: a. Suksstantial air emissions or deterioration of ambient air quality? iiy Yes '_ No X Maybe �W Response: The proposal will not affect air quality because the increase in the number of Vehicle trips is not significant. The expected of number of vehicle pries generated from this use will be between 40 and 60 trips per day of use. This is nct significant because the applicant anticipates using; this site only on weekends and primarily during the slimmer months. The cumulative annual impact of the traffic generated by this use is incremental compared to the average daily traffic counts found on Centerville Road and Honey Run Road. Furthermore, the Butte County Air Poll0ion Control Plan does not address air quality impacts of small developments or limited uses of property for possible mitigation measures. MitinAion: None required. b. The creation a%on o objectionable .ct�' o nabie odors? � m? Yes _,r Nn X Maybe, response: The proposal to hold weddings and meetings dewing weekend days will not create objectionable odors, smoke or fumes. IVIE�iigation: None required. c. Alteration of air movement, moisture, temperature, or any change in climate, whether locally or regionally? Yes No X Maybe Response: Only large projects such as the construction of a large high-rise buildings, the creation of a large water beady (such as a lake or thousands of acres of rice fields); massive defoliation, or introduction of large tracts of vegetation where there was previously none, would have the climactic effects discussed in this question. Since this project has none of these characteristics it will not result in any change in air movement, moisture, temperature, or climate. Mitigation, None required.' 3. Lt'Jater. Will the proposal result in: a. Substantial, changes in currents, or the course or direction of water movements, in fresh water:;? Yes —No X Maybe Response: Butte Creek traverses the project site, but the project is not proposing any'new construction or developmeait on the parcel that would cause any substantial alterations to the course of Butte Greek. Mitigation: None required, b. Substantial changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, or the rate and amount of surface runoff on-site or into any Water body? Yes __„_No X Maybe Response The project will not involve the development any new structures or any substantial alteration oft I he site. The current circular driveway/parking area is paved and the overflow parking area is gravel and the parcel has significant vegetative cover that will remain. Absorption rates will not be significantly affected. Mitigation: None required. c.

Maybe RgIponse; The project site is located along Butte Greek and in a 100 'year flood zone which makes a small portion of the site prone to flooding during periods of heavy/ or sustained rains. The project will not involve the development any new structures or any substantial alteration of the site that would affect the flow of flood waters. The project will utilize existing paved and graveled parking areas and any additional parking areas will be gravel. The parcel .has significant vegetative cover that will remain. Mitigation: None required. e. r Discharge into surface waters, orin any alteration or surface water quality, including, but not limited to, temperature, dissolved oxygen or turbidity? Yes No _' XMaybe Response, The project site is located along Butte Creek, however, no development is proposed that would cause any earthen disturbance that would result in increased erosion into the creek that Gould impact the water quality. Storm water contamination may result from residential use of pesticides, herbicides, petroleum products, and other pollutants, however, the proposed use will not increase the use of these materials, Metigati®n: None required. f. Alteration of the direction of rate of flow of ground waters? Yes No :X Maybe Response- 'The proposal will not affect the direction or flow of ground waters because the water needs of the proposed use will not be substantial and the Environmental Health Division will require the applicant to provide bottled potable water for all functions as a condition of project approval.

Provide potable drinking water for guests other than house well water, ie., bottled drinking water. 2. Provide outside toilets (chemical toilets) to accommodate guests. The concept is to not use water from the well or toilet facilities in the house for the Reoeption/Meeting Hallbusiness. Acceptable remedial yste action on the well and/or septic -sm may allow future- modification of one or more of the conditions. if you have any questions, please contact me at the Chico off -ice listed ,above between 8 and 9ain, Monday through Thursday.

The following concerns exist and must be resolved prior to final approval of the use permit; 1: The existing well on the property was installed without a permit by the previous owner. This, issue was never resolved. : Since there is no official record concerning the construction of the weil(a requirement of State law) and the requzr�d well seal inspection was not conducted to verify the integrity of the seal, again a requirement of State law, a new well And subsequent destruction of the existing well will be required. Itmay be necessary to install the new well according to the requirements for a non-community water system; You may wish to, contact a licensed well driller regarding these requirements. A permit will be required prior to commencing any work, 2. The existing septic system was sized for a two bedroom home and is not adequate for the prop_ost-d use. The system will need to be enlarged. The existing system was installed in native soil, however very little additional native soil was observed at the time of installation of the existing system Installation of Teach lines in mine tailings requires engineered plans and installation, usually ,involving a soil import system. You may wish to contact a licensed civil engineer regarding these requirements.
