    Summary

    Decision Date: February 29, 1996

    Panel: David Perry

    The Appellants appealed the issuance of a sewage disposal permit for the lot adjoining their property. The Permit Holder had plans to build two three-bedroom houses on his property which were to be serviced by the conventional sewage disposal system approved by the permit. The Appellants’ main concern in the appeal was that the proposed new development would cause adverse environmental effects. However, the Board concluded from the evidence that the proposed sewage disposal system complied with all the standards in the Sewage Disposal Regulation. The Board upheld the permit and dismissed the appeal.
