E. Typically, initial installation of a septic system is triggered by new development, and requires associated approval of a building permit. During the*buildirig permit review process, the location of the-proposed septic system would then be reviewed by the Planning Staff for compliance with the zoning ordinance. In this case, no building permit was needed, thus-there was no mechanism to trigger Planning Staff review prior to issuance of the Improvements Permit by Environmental Health. Board Action. The Board of Commissioners directed that the issues raised by the installation of the septic system be addressed by the Planning Board and Board of Health, and that the list of uses allowed in the AS district be reviewed by the Planning Board. A report will be presented to the Board of-Health at its January meeting. Comments will be referred to the Planning Board at its February meeting. Recommendations of both Boards can then be presented to the Board of Commissioners. RECOMENDATION: The Planning Staff recommends denial of the rezoning per the attached findings. Related to the above recommendation, the Planning Staff recommends: the issue of permitted uses in the AS district be referred to the Ordinance Review Committee following review and comment by the Agricultural District Advisory Board, Cooperative*Extension, and Economic Development Commission.
