be in someone’s window, they will be pointed straight down onto the courts directionally. That is something that tennis 1319 players prefer too by the way. 1320 1321 HYAA representative: Without lights, you end when the sun goes down. In the fall it’s about 7:15 and in the spring it’s 1322 around 8 o’clock. Our games all start at 6 o’clock. 1323 1324 Adam Beeman: I am just going to go ahead and assume that you guys will both agree that you are not going to ask 1325 Hillsborough for water and sewer. And I am going to go ahead and talk about water and sewer. I read this septic report 1326 from your soil scientist and he’s shown where it is suitable and not suitable. Then I take your drawing and overlay it and 1327 your buildings and pavements sit on top of all your good sites. Anything that you leave with the exception of the tennis 1328 courts, they are in the bad to not so great septic areas. The last sentence if the soil scientist report was “There appears 1329 to be ample soils and drain field needs for 1,200 students a day school, however once a preliminary site design is 1330 completed, additional site and soil investigation should be conducted to determine the system particulars.” Like I said, if 1331 you lay your site plan on top of this, your buildings cover the majority of your good, suitable septic spaces. I just don’t 1332 understand. 1333 1334 Jim Parker: Those sites are conventional septic so there would be innovative septic systems that would be absorptions in 1335 fields, or sprayed or there’s a lot of ways that are done beyond the conventional septic soils. 1336 1337 Adam Beeman: If you put in 55 houses, the health department would determine half of them have septic issues and they 1338 probably wouldn’t be put there anyway or there would be restrictions on bedroom size and that’s that. I just want to be 1339 clear because I see septic issues. I don’t know why you didn’t go back to the soil scientist after you got a design and go 1340 back through your site plan and what he did and say yes, everything is still acceptable and suitable or no, we need to 1341 shift some things around because to me it looks like you are sitting on all your good space with pavement and buildings. 1342 1343 Jim Parker: The soccer fields could become the septic areas for the school. That is true, and I said that earlier through 1344 the innovative design. 1345 1346 Adam Beeman: Nobody on your team has approached the environmental health department for a consultation? I am just 1347 curious to know if you have actually consulted with environmental health. 1348 1349 Jim Parker: Other than what Cy indicated as far as them reviewing the soils and everything else associated with that. 1350 1351 Adam Beeman: The scientist said “Even though I find suitable places, the regulating authority may find ….Regardless of 1352 what happens between you guys and Hillsborough, if we are going down the septic and well path, I just want to know 1353 that you are going to have suitable space for your schools but I see nothing saying here’s the space for your fields and 1354 here is the space for the tennis courts. 1355 1356 Jim Parker: You’re right, the school is the biggest user. 1357 1358 Adam Beeman: I was just trying to ascertain if it would be good to go forward and ask the soil scientist to look at the site 1359 plans and say you’re good or hey you guys need to shift some things around, this is not going to work. If we move 1360 forward tonight and approve your plan, your next steps through the development process is going to the health 1361 department and getting your permits and all that. If we let you go forward and you spend more money making allocations 1362 and the health department says “eh you don’t qualify”… 1363 1364 Jim Parker: That’s our risk. 1365 1366 Adam Beeman: I am simply asking in my mind why wouldn’t you step back and have them give you a 1367 preliminary….come out and say “yep, you’re right, we agree with the soil scientist report. Everything looks like it should 1368 be moving forward.” I’m just trying to prevent you from….it would assuage me to say that someone has looked at the 1369 septic to say “yes, this is going to be acceptable” I have 11 acres and I only perked for 3 bedrooms. It’s difficult, I get it 1370 and …. 1371 1372 29
