Motion by Member Ron Paradise, seconded by Member John Boden to forward the item to the City Commission based on there being recognition allowing the advanced On Site Treatment and Disposal System, located at 988 Elkcam Boulevard subject to the following recommendations; the advanced system would allow a level of development/redevelopment to occur on the property; the high wastewater treatment standards afforded by the planned aerobic OSTDS is consistent with City environmental protection goals and will result in less nutrient loading and will in turn help safeguard the Blue Spring basin; and the installation of a central sewer connection will allow for a quick and easy connection to a central system when available.
