Pursuant to the authority granted by § 20 of the Town Law of the State of New York, the office of Town Sanitarian is hereby established for the Town of Stanford.
Said office shall consist of the following:
Qualification. The person designated as Town Sanitarian shall be fully qualified to perform the duties herein mentioned.

Final approval. Upon completion of installation of septic systems and before such systems are covered over or hooked up to any buildings, the Town Sanitarian shall inspect said installations and, upon approval, shall issue certificates of final approval.
The Town Sanitarian may require that both preliminary and final approval be given by a professional engineer when, in his opinion, the circumstances require such approval or if the proposed septic system may use in excess of 1,000 gallons a day or be part of a proposed or existing subdivision or is to be utilized in any commercial or industrial business.
The Town Sanitarian shall be compensated for services rendered to the Town of Stanford in such amount as determined from time to time by the Town Board of the Town of Stanford.
The fee to be paid by the applicant for the building permit shall be fixed at $75, subject to adjustment from time to time by the Town Board of the Town of Stanford.

Furthermore, the Town Sanitarian may, at his discretion, require that a private engineer be retained at the expense of the applicant for the building permit.
