performance." 7. Before a study is made to reevaluate comparative salaries for

Appeal on Well Location - Mr. Stovall A request for variance from the "Ordinance
Governing the Construction of Wells and Private Water Supply Systems Within the
County." The home is owned by C. Gordon Smith, M.D. on Beagle Trail. The Ordinance
states that a well cannot be placed within 50 feet of Chemically Poisoned Soil. The
well in question is only 43 feet from the chemically treated foundation of the house.
A letter was given to members of the Board from Dr. Smith requesting a waiver be grant-
ed and stating that in his opinion there is no danger from pollution since the well
is 150 feet deep. Mr. Fox said that the Ordinance would have to be changed before a
variance could be made since there was no provision in the Ordinance for variances.
Mr. Reaves made a motion that the Well Ordinance be ammended and that Paragraph 9
read "These distances may be reasonably increased or decreased by the Board of Health
when site conditions warrant." Motion was seconded and carried.
Dr. Seidel made a motion that the variance be granted to Mr. Stoval for the above
mentioned home and that the drillers log be prssented to substantiate safety. Motion
was seconded and carried. Dr. Eakins voted No.
