Resident raises concerns about septic rules, grandfathered camp and proximity to English Brook
Summary
A participant described a small three‑season camp that was 'grandfathered' and lacks bedrooms, said English Brook has cut a new channel near their property, and asked whether sewer lines would be extended; the transcript records the comment and the chair's reply that there are no plans to extend sewer lines.
During public comment, a participant described owning a three‑season camp that was "grandfathered" and lacks standard bedrooms, and asked whether the village would extend sewer lines. The participant said the creek (English Brook) has formed a new channel near their structure and that they were told they may have to install a tank. The chair responded that there are "no plans" to extend sewer lines as reported in the transcript.
The commenter said the property was taxed as a three‑season camp and that previous construction choices were made to preserve that status. They asked what remedies exist given proximity to the brook and the regulatory requirements for septic tanks; the transcript captures the question but does not show a commission decision or plan to change sewer infrastructure.
