Deputy clerk asks for clarification on 'Type 1' buildability rule for split parcels
Summary
Deputy Clerk Ashley Rauschnot asked the commission to clarify whether land split after 1996 must use Type 1 subsurface sewage systems and whether preexisting parcels can use Type 3, citing Ordinance 70. The item was recorded for future clarification.
Deputy Clerk Ashley Rauschnot raised a procedural question under New Business about what the city deems "buildable" in relation to subsurface sewage-treatment requirements. She cited Ordinance 70 (Subsurface Sewage Treatment Systems), section 4.01.03, which states parcels split after 1996 must use Type 1 systems while parcels that existed prior to that date may be eligible for Type 3 systems.
Rauschnot said the question arose from inquiries to the city office and sought confirmation of how the code should be applied to lot splits and new builds. The transcript records the question but does not show a final determination at the Oct. 21 meeting; the item is on the record for follow-up.
