Health agent Ed reported two additional mosquito samples from nearby communities that tested positive for West Nile virus. \"There were two more mosquito samples that contain West Nile virus,\" Ed said, and he identified the positive samples as coming from towns outside Lakeville. He told the board the recent positive detections were not in Lakeville but are the kind of seasonal finding the board typically monitors.

No new local response or additional measures were announced at the meeting.

Darren Hills of Foresight (Foresight/Ford's Head) Engineering told the board the existing system had two leaks and that the plan calls for removing the old tank, filling failed pits with sand and installing a standard dimensional pump system with a slight mound. \"We got a failed system, 2 leaks,\" Hills said, describing the work and noting he found a favorable percolation rate allowing the proposed field to meet setbacks to neighboring wells.

The application requested a variance to reduce the required separation to groundwater from 4 feet to 3 feet and a variance on the tank inlet elevation because of slab constraints. Hills also requested that the field-size note be corrected on the plan (the field will be 15 by 35 feet) and that tank construction be specified as monolithic H‑20. The applicant proposed the liner bottom elevation at the 98 contour in places; board members discussed seasonal variability of the water table and asked the engineer to bring the liner down to intercept potential flow from the uphill grade if necessary.

A motion to approve the system upgrade at 9 Heritage Hill Drive, including the two variances and the specified plan corrections (monolithic tank, field size, and liner elevation), passed unanimously on a voice vote (Aye; three members present). The board recorded the plan revisions on the file copy and asked the engineer to submit corrected notes before final sign‑off.","The Board of Health approved a replacement sewage disposal system and two variances for 9 Heritage Hill Drive after hearing from the project's engineer about ground conditions and proposed design changes.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6511783,"Board approves septic upgrade at 14 Edgewater Drive with variances, contingent on notifications and well test",942,46000,988000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5134071-220862823f822d2fb440dccd68eee887&start=46&end=988","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5134071-220862823f822d2fb440dccd68eee887/thumbnail_46000.jpg","/articles/6511783/Massachusetts/Board-approves-septic-upgrade-at-14-Edgewater-Drive-with-variances-contingent-on-notifications-and-well-test","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6511783-74118605637e8ce4c03b2c24751618c4/orig.mp4?Expires=1771160299&Signature=oBBc3l87Mg-CAxHnY904n~xEFnwTGJZmhdmhbi5RTxGWV8jXWFN2L-NMOLXh5hqRlwwtGtI-ka3EEKELOND4gs9o-Bpq3mOd0KupgdqOtU6DVoGtQc4eUoEMDPKAgQ2mKpiKyFVSEn-v7ksJ9ILg8TuNITYofbtJTlO1R-~jZU1lyBbANKwLe5yImaKlUh4fox5TixNw~QcKmEGPL8K5F087FsM7TksSNXBmdI0cKXor6HS2uL-QraCvwRy4Xb3X-2Rb9maYdYfS5LZ1bSlH7iPeSxJ52LX~g-OVQU3YTVB4CFiWNrada08i5yLKwcP47l-ny9xxfelXoIInT9Pusw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lakeville Board of Health on July 2 approved a proposed replacement septic system and five local variances for 14 Edgewater Drive, contingent on proof that outside water authorities were notified and that the on‑site well is tested.

Will Connolly of Zenith Consulting Engineers described the project to the board: \"The site is 14 Edgewater Drive. It's an 18,500 square foot lot, which is bordered by Long Pond to the west. There's an existing 3 bedroom dwelling on-site, which we're proposing to be raised.\" Connolly told the board the work would remove the existing house and system and replace them with a new three-bedroom house served by a 1,500‑gallon microfast tank, approximately a 1,000‑gallon pump chamber and a stone-and-pipe leaching field.

The application requested several local upgrades, including reducing the required setback to a surface-water supply from 400 feet to 80 feet and related spacing variances. Connolly said the proposed system has been positioned as far from the pond as site constraints allow and that the plan already received Conservation Commission approval.

Board members focused discussion on the on‑site well. The board recorded that the applicant had not supplied a recent well test; Connolly said the client understood a test would be required prior to work. A board member recommended disinfecting and retesting the well after demolition if the family reuses it rather than drilling a new well.

A motion to approve the subsurface sewage disposal system upgrade at 14 Edgewater Drive — including the five variances and subject to provision of notification to Taunton and the other named town and to a well test, and a correction to the D‑box outlet elevation on the plan (from 5.67 to 6) — passed unanimously. The board recorded a unanimous vote in favor (Aye; three members present). The motion specified that if any notified party responds and requests further review, the applicant must return to the board.

The board signed the plan with a handwritten correction to the outlet elevation and requested submission of proof of notifications and the well‑test result before final sign‑off.","The Lakeville Board of Health approved a septic-system upgrade and five variances for 14 Edgewater Drive, requiring notifications to outside water authorities and a test of the property's well before final sign-off.","actionData","errors"]
