(a) For any proposed subdivision or applicable lot line adjustment which will not be connected to a public sewer, the Health Officer shall require site specific onsite wastewater treatment system designs for each proposed parcel before recommendations are presented to the Planning Commission. The onsite system design for each proposed parcel shall be prepared from a site evaluation conducted by a Qualified Professional as defined in § 611-2(n). (Ord. 2584, § 1, 11/7/2017)

(b) Such designs shall recognize that the onsite wastewater treatment demands of any particular subdivision cannot be analyzed without reference to the onsite wastewater treatment demands of the land surrounding the subdivision. (Ord. 2584, § 1, 11/7/2017)

(c) Such designs shall recognize that the proposed onsite wastewater treatment systems of the subdivision must be viewed as a single system for purposes of analysis. The Health Officer may require that a cumulative impact study of the effects of wastewater discharge be conducted. (Ord. 2584, § 1, 11/7/2017)

(d) Such designs shall be consistent with all the provisions of this division and regulations issued by the Health Officer. (Ord. 2584, § 1, 11/7/2017)

(g) The designs shall be accompanied by a fee estimate to cover the expenses incurred by the County in reviewing the designs. The fee shall be set by resolution or ordinance of the Board of Supervisors. In the event that the actual costs are less than the fee deposited, the balance shall be returned. In the event the actual costs are greater than the fee deposited, the subdivider shall pay to the County the excess of the actual costs over the amount of the fee deposited.
