The plan for <br /> McLennan's Farm included fourteen (14) lots to be <br /> served by a community low pressure system for sewage <br /> disposal. The application first went to public <br /> hearing on November 23, 1987, and again on January 4, <br /> 1988. The public hearing was continued to the <br /> Commissioners' meeting on March 1, 1988 to receive the <br /> Planning Board's recommendation and comments submitted <br /> by Orange Water and Sewer Authority. <br /> At the March 1, 1988 meeting, the Commissioners voted <br /> to continue the public hearing on McLennan's Farm to <br /> June 21, 1988, and to authorize the County Manager to <br /> seek an independent consultant to study the advisabil- <br /> ity and effectiveness of alternative systems for <br /> 'sewage disposal. Subsequently, the County contracted <br /> with Hazen and Sawyer, consulting engineers, to <br /> prepare the study. The Hazen and Sawyer report was <br /> presented to the Commissioners on August 22, 1988. <br /> Due to the length of time required to complete the <br /> alternative systems study, the McLennan's Farm request <br /> was inadvertently left off the June 21 Commissioners <br />
