Document Description
The County of Santa Clara proposes to adopt a new ordinance that would update and replace existing County regulations governing individual on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) within the unincorporated parts of the County. Besides allowing use of alternative OWTS (non-traditional systems that use pre-treatment technologies), the proposed ordinance would eliminate the 1-acre minimum lot size requirement for installation of OWTS in the Lexington Basin. The proposed project also includes changes to a County General Plan policy as well as a change to the Zoning Ordinance eliminating the minimum lot size requirement for secondary dwelling units in the San Martin Planning Area.
