In new business: A holding tank application was submitted by Marcy Lindley for the old service station location on 18. It is being required by the Washington County Sewage Council that a holding tank for gray water be installed. The solicitor was consulted and said that all holding tanks, regardless of their purpose, are subject to the holding tank agreement and the escrow amount. There was discussion about tanks and escrow amounts compared to pumping cost and potential clean up costs. Supervisors will look into creating a new ordinance to address the new circumstances that can come up with holding tanks and escrow amounts. In the meantime, the Lindleys will be under the current agreement and will update their agreement when a new one is approved.
