Variance Application, Pt GL 4 Com NW Cor GL 5...(.81 Acres), Section 06 of
Girard Township
RE:
I have viewed this lot and can verify that access is not possible without filling a small amount of
wetland.
The proposed wetland fill has been approved by the required wetland agencies. Mitigation is not
possible onsite, therefore the variance is needed to purchase credits from the wetland bank. Mr.
West, the County Engineer has agreed to sell the required credits to satisfy the Wetland
Conservation Act requirements.
