The applicant proposes an approximate 800 sf addition to an existing residence along with a screened porch at 5183 Sagamore Road. The existing structure has a 115 foot setback and with the porch addition, the setback will be reduced to 103 feet. The addition will increase the number of bedrooms from 2 to 3 requiring an upgrade to the existing non-compliant on-site wastewater treatment system. The applicant proposes a gravelless absorption system. This initial stormwater plan prepared for the Lake George Park Commission was denied and an engineer has been hired. A stormwater management plan was submitted to the Lake George Park Commission by the October 14, 2009 Planning Board meeting and a permit was expected by October 16, 2009. In addition, the site plan was modified to keep traffic off the septic system.
