¸. if it is determined that the site 1) has the capacity to dispose of wastewater; 2) is free from natural hazards or the hazard can be adequately corrected; 3) there is no significant evidence of inability to obtain a suitable domestic water supply; and 4) there is adequate access to the parcel. Steep slopes may restrict the site's suitability for wastewater disposal, but applicant noted that other parcels in the area have been approved for regular or sand filter disposal systems. Applicant's total ownership is in three parcels, including the subject parcel, and septic site approvals were granted for each of those three parcels. Septic approvals are common in the area, and it is likely that adequate space for wastewater disposal can be provided for each new parcel. A septic site evaluation will be required for each parcel to confirm that an adequate septic system can be installed. With a condition of approval requiring septic site evaluation approval by the Marion County Building Inspection Division, the wastewater disposal portion of rural residential development policy 9 will be met. The subject site is within an identified geologic slide hazard area. Under MCZO 110.837(b), to ensure land uses and structures are not adversely affected by unstable soils, prior to issuance of any building or zoning permit on lands identified as a potential geologic hazard the applicant shall provide either: 1) a report by an engineering geologist demonstrating that the proposed development site is not effected by a geologic hazard and will not increase the potential for slope instability for other property; or 2) construction plans prepared by an engineer and evidence showing that the development design is adequate to overcome the geologic hazard and the development will not increase the potential for slope instability on adjacent property. MCZ0 chapter 182 also applies. Under MCZO 182.040: (A) The county shall grant approval to alter the condition of any land, water or vegetation, or to construct or alter any structure or improvement including, but not limited to, the following regulated activities within identified landslide hazard and excessive slope areas and as permitted in the underlying zone and applicable overlay zones, after receipt of an approved site assessment, engineering geology report, or geotechnical report as required by this chapter that concludes deveiopment does not pose an elevated hazard risk to property.
