Before buying a lot contact the health department to perform a soil evaluation. An application must be completed and turned in with a set of floor plans for your home. A backhoe will be required for the evaluation. It will also be necessary to flag the house location on the lot. The site evaluation will determine the suitability of the soil for an onsite sewage disposal system. Onsite_Fee_Schedule
