A copy of the written report from the committee and the following resolution adopted by the Board of Health were presented to the Board for further consideration. Whereas the Cabarrus County Board of Health is charged with the pro- tection of the public health, and; ~ereas the~i.Board of Health recognizes the tremendous growth potential of the county, and; Whereas the Board of Health recognizes the limitations of the soils of the county to support the rapidly growing numbers of septic tank systems that are presently being permitted, and; Whereas the Board of Health is aware that malfunctioning septic tank systems tend to decrease the property values of a neighborhood, as well as increasing the risk of disease to the residents, and; Whereas most residents have limited space in which to repair a mai- functioning septic tank system, and; Therefore the Cabarrus County Board of Health recommends that the Board of County Commissioners pursue the immediate development of a plan to provide sewer service to already densely populated areas of the county and to areas that can expect rapid growth in the next 10 years, particularly where soils are not well suited for on-site sewage disposal systems and, furthermore, that they begin to implement the plan as rapidly as reasonably possible. /s/ Freeman C.
