Polatty responded that it wa! <br /> a trade off between expense and pollut4on. Gordon felt that in the past <br /> people have not considered the pollution costs of development. <br /> Friedman inquired if there was an inspections process to determine the <br /> need for repairs. Luce responded that the inspections activity was address <br /> .__ . _ __ _ <br /> --- in the -second part of the recommendation. <br /> Friedman expressed concern with the costs involved, especially if the <br /> desired location was changed at some later point. <br /> Crawford indicated that the Board was not involved at the moment in the <br /> fine tuning of the recommendations, but that those concerns would be <br /> considered at a later date. Friedman responded that functioning does not <br /> tend to be a iitiblio process. Crawford responded that implementation would <br /> require a public hearing. <br /> Kizer felt that this recommendation would be a monster to administer.

Irvin seconded the motion. <br /> Kizer cited harsher requirements such as certification of homes, <br /> He expressed dissatisfaction with the massive approach outlined in the <br /> recommendation. <br /> Gordon expressed concern that failing systems in subdivisions would lead to <br /> demand for water and sewer lines to remedy the problem, resulting in an ' <br /> economic burden. <br /> Brian Dodge noted the alternatives as; 1) condemn (and; 2) extend sewer <br /> lines; or 3) assure a back up system. He noted the last item was the <br /> least expensive. <br /> • <br /> Don Cox noted that the existence of a second site provides for an alternative <br /> usage system and the option to alternate sites. <br />
