C. Environmental Health Endorsement (1) Section V-D-6 Certificates of Endorsement/Final Plat This item was Chaired by Betty Eidenier and presented by Mary Scearbo. In summary this proposed amendment to the Subdivision Regulations will revise the current language of the Environmental Health Certificate for subdivisions. The Environmental Health Division of the Orange County Health Department is required to endorse all subdivision Final Plats certifying that the proposed lots are approved for surface sewage disposal systems provided public utilities are not available. In conjunction with the Environmental Health Division the Planning Department determined that the current endorsement is too general. The proposed amendment would provide more explicit information regarding the issuance of septic system permits. THERE WERE NO QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, PLANNING BOARD OR CITIZENS. A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Chairman Carey, to refer this item to the Planning Board for a recommendation to be returned to the Board of Commissioners no sooner than January 6, 1992. VOTE: UNANIMOUS d. Mapping Requirements of G.S. 47-30 (1) Section V-D Final Plat (2) Section II Definition of Subdivision (3) Section V-D-6 Certificates of Endorsement/Final Plat This item was Chaired by Betty Eidenier and presented by Mary Scearbo. In summary these proposed amendments to the Subdivision Regulations will incorporate changes in Final Plat mapping and recordation provisions, as required by a recently ratified amendment to G.S. 47-30. An amendment to G.S. 47-30 was ratified by the General Assembly on June 12, 1991. The changes went into effect on October 1, 1991. The statute pertains largely to the recording of plats in the Office of the Register of Deeds. There are also some provisions within the subdivision Regulations which relate to this legislation. The proposed amendment provides consistency with G.S. 47-30 as amended. The revisions address the size of plats, the materials on which plats may be drawn, survey information, certifications and attachments to deeds or other instructions. Mr. Jerry Davis spoke in support of this mapping requirement. A letter he sent Mary Scearbo was entered into the record. Mr. Alois Callemyn spoke in support of this amendment and entered a letter from the North Carolina Society of Surveyors into the record. Commissioner Gordon requested a complete cost and impact analyses when this is returned to the Board. Ms. Scearbo agreed to handle this.
