shows up. You know, you cant force them to come and they cant give you a price without coming and looking. SPRINGER:Thank you. Commissioners, any other questions for the testifier? I have a question for the Deputy Director. With regard to this testimony and the reference to the septic tank issue, Im wondering if the septic tank meets the requirements for this action? DARROW:When we spoke with Department of Health, the representative said that they did not have a record of there being a septic system that was approved or finaled. We had placed a condition at the last meeting that if this was approved that it would require them to install a septic system with a leech field. At first, the condition stated that it would connect with the County sewer system, or to get an approved septic system. But at this point theyre just-, weve changed that. Instead of having it hook up toaCountysewersystemwerequestedthatbefore-,thatthecertificateofoccupancy would be approved only upon compliance of an approved septic system with the Department of Health, or in connection with an approved sewer system. So that is being addressed in the conditions at this time. SPRINGER:Thank you, Mr. Darrow. Mr. Mooers. MOOERS:Uh, yeah, I just wanted to point out that there was some question from the Department of Health. I had conversations with them, they couldnt find permits. Mr. Holmes has photographic evidence of the septic system being installed; and should the permit be granted or even if its not granted, Mr. Holmes will be working with the Department of Health to make sure that the septic system meets all Department of Health standards so that it will need to be- that issue would need to be resolved. And we do have drawings and we do have photographs showing the installation. Apparently the title of the person doing the work at the time is different than Mr. Holmes, and theres some confusion in their files, but we do have the photographic evidence here. And I dont know if the Commissioners are interested in getting into the septic system issue or willing to accept the fact that it must meet with the Department of Health standards if thats adequate. SPRINGER:Thats how the condition reads, that compliance, the certificate of occupancy will be approved only upon compliance. Is there anything further on this? Commissioner Siracusa. SIRACUSA:I just was wondering if Mr. Holmes and his wife have already moved on to the first floor. MOOERS:Could you repeat the question, please? SIRACUSA:Well, since Mrs. Holmes is, is, has difficulty in climbing stairs I was wondering if he and his wife have already moved onto the first floor, which would leave the other two floors unoccupied.
