Article IV. ON-SITE SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEMS ON HUTCHINSON ISLAND |
§ 20-88. Administrative waiver.
The requirement of mandatory connection for a particular on-site sewage disposal system or the prohibition of construction of a particular on-site sewage disposal system as set forth in this article shall be waived administratively by the planning and development services director if the administrator determines in a written order that such connection should not then be required. Any such waiver shall be based only on a finding that the central wastewater system does not have sufficient capacity to serve the additional demand of that particular on-site sewage disposal system or on a finding that a proposed on-site disposal system is more than 200 feet from a central wastewater system's collection line. Any person requesting a waiver as provided herein, who disagrees with the decision of the planning and development services director, may appeal the decision to the board of county commissioners by filing a written request with the county administrator within 15 days of the date of the planning and development services director's decision. Any waiver granted shall be conditioned upon the written consent of the owners of the system to connect to a central wastewater system which has sufficient capacity within 90 days after the central system's collection lines have been installed immediately adjoining or across a public street or is within 200 feet from the property served by the on-site sewage disposal system.
