VOTING FOR: LaValle, Spitzer, Schletty, Irsfeld and Vail MOTION CARRIED 5.9 Dick Genrich - Variance to Standard Septic Svstem The Planning Commission was unable to make a recommendation to use the osmosis type system in Hugo for new construction. Mr. Genrich wants to divide an 80A parcel into a 30A parcel and a 50A parcel, and perc tests did not pass on either parcel. He is requesting that the City Council approve the osmosis sewer system in principal. Mr. Kuusisto stated that he was unaware that there was no area where a standard system could be installed. LaValle said that the basic question is "should the City of Hugo take land that is unbuildable and make buildable by any type of any sewer system". We have had existing problems and looked at alternative systEms. But on this piece of property, we have a couple of houses with no way out. Mr. Genrich stated that 100 systems have been installed with no failures. LaValle said that he did know if the city can go against the ordinance and grant a variance. He did not think that it was the intention to open areas for development that don't meet the requirements we now have. LaValle suggested that Mr. Genrich find a site that is buildable and then we could look at an alternative system. Mr. Johnson stated that there is an additional problem because of the Flood Plain Ordinance. The ordinance is on file and has to be followed. LaValle said that the property is located in the 100 year flood level.
