Board flags missing paperwork and variance questions on several septic/perk applications
Summary
Members reviewed multiple septic/percolation test reports and repair applications (including 96 Old Princeton Road and 9 Thompson Road), found missing cover sheets and a local‑variance stamp on one plan, and asked staff to follow up with the building inspector/engineer before final approval.
The board reviewed a package of septic and perk‑test applications and follow‑up reports for several addresses, including 6 Woodview Drive, 96 Old Princeton Road (missing information), and 9 Thompson Road (repair noted). Chair said one packet was missing a cover sheet and that some applications date back to earlier site work; members asked staff to verify whether required post‑inspection documentation is on file before final approvals.
Committee members flagged a local variance stamp on one plan and asked who authorized the variance, noting that local variances should come through the proper channels. The board agreed to follow up with Phil (the inspector/engineer) and with DEP as needed and to assign a different inspector if a conflict of interest is identified. For one minor repair (a D‑box replacement), the board determined it could be handled through normal follow‑up if documentation is completed.
