Friday, August 3, 2018 2 – 4 pm Sauble Beach United Church (formerly Zion Amabel United Church)
Sponsored by Saugeen Cottagers Organization Inc,
The meeting is designed to help land-lease cottage owners to become more familiar with the Saugeen First Nation septic upgrading initiative.
Kirk Roote will speak about how the initiative is being implemented and Band policy re: cottage sales/purchases, building permits, existing but recent septic upgrades that no longer meet code and the importance of record keeping (installation and maintenance, pump outs etc..).
George Korzeniecki will discuss current code requirements, separation distances/set backs, installation requirements and various technology/design options based on lot size/shape and existing infrastructure.
Brian Miller will be available to answer questions related to installation logistics, timelines as well as technology/design options and can discuss creating an acceptable design and a submission for a septic permit.
- Kirk Roote, Manager, Lands Management, Saugeen First Nation
- George Korzeniecki, Environmental Health Officer, Indigenous Services Canada
- Brian Miller, Septic installations – Miller’s Contracting, Southampton

What is the address of the church please?
As shown on the map, the Sauble Beach United Church is at 899 Main Street, Sauble Beach. It is on the north (left) side of County Road 8 as you head toward Hepworth, across the road from Miller’s Home Building Centre. It is the same location SCOI holds its Annual General Meeting each year on the Saturday of Labour Day weekend.
Thank you. I opened the email on my phone and was unable to view the map.
I wasn’t able to attend the meeting yesterday. Is there any information i can view as to what was said or meeting minutes that will be distriputed to cottage owners?
A few volunteers who attended the Septic Systems Information meeting were taking notes that we will combine into a meeting summary. When compiled, the notes will be posted on the SCOI website along with the Ontario septic information fact sheet referred to by the presenters. Kirk Roote will also be scanning the business cards of septic contractors and these will also be posted. Kirk is on holidays this week, so the posts may not be until next week.
Are you still planning on posting minutes from the meeting?
A number of volunteers took notes at the meeting. These are being compiled and will be posted on the SCOI website next week along with the Ontario septic systems fact sheet that was referred to by the speakers. Kirk Roote is away this week but will be providing a list of the contractors currently doing work on the reservation. The list will also be posted on the web site
