Document Description
The Project site is located just east of the City of Woodlake and is within the Woodlake Urban Development Boundary and is zoned M-1 (Light Manufacturing). The property owner is requesting an administrative variance for construction of a new (replacement) well to supply the property with water for the domestic uses consistent with the existing zoning. The location of the new well is unable to comply with the minimum setback requirements from the septic tank and leach lines/disposal fields. The contractor will install a 66' annular seal to eliminate the risk of contamination to the new well site. The beneficiary of the Project is the property owner.
