Hague board conditionally approves wastewater variance for 279 Silver Bay Road
Summary
After hearing from the applicant and engineers about seepage and proximity to the lake, the Town of Hague board conditionally approved a wastewater system variance for 279 Silver Bay Road, tying final approval to concurrence from Cedarwood engineering.
The Town of Hague board voted to conditionally approve a wastewater-system variance for property at 279 Silver Bay Road (applicant Thomas Yohan) during a continued public hearing.
Engineers and neighbors described risks of lateral seepage to the lake and noted visual or odor signs would indicate system failure. Board members discussed alternatives, including holding tanks, and said the variance would not be acted on until Cedarwood (the referenced engineering consultant) concurred with any additional improvements. One board member said the applicant should consult Nick VanDell of Cedarwood to "dot our i's and cross our t's" before final approval.
The motion to approve the variance with the condition of Cedarwood concurrence was moved and seconded and carried. The board closed the hearing for this property and noted that additional technical review and any required conditions would be documented before final sign-off.
