VARIANCE TO THE SEWER MORATORIUM FOR MARYSVILLE
LUTHERAN BRETHREN CHURCH.

Ordinance 1795 imposing a temporary ban on new sewer connections
to the city's sewer system as a result of a capacity crisis;and

from the ban in certain unique hardship cases;and

variance for property located at 9028 -51st Drive N.E.,Marys-
ville,and a public hearing on said application was held by the
City Council on November 5,1990;and

fact:

Marysville Lutheran Brethren Church has been failing for
approximately one year.It requires pumping every four months.
2.A sewer main abuts the subject property.
3.Allowing a connection of the parsonage to the city's
sewer system would eliminate an existing health hazard.

organic loading would be discharged into the city's sewer system
from the parsonage.

by DOE.This prohibition also arises from section 2.1 of
Ordinance 1795.
