XTO is asking for a variance to the 600' well bore to protected use setback requirement in Section 114.13(A)(4) of the Corinth City Code. XTO has acquired consent agreements and in some cases liability waivers from all land owners that have physical buildings within the 600' distance.
The Lake Sharon Christian Center has buildings between 200' and 300' from the well bores. They too have provided and filed signed consent forms to allow this variance.
With these agreements from the actual impacted land owners and referring to my earlier discussion on drilling rights, I see no real alternative to approving the variance.
We are allowed to impose additional requirements for the reduction in distance. As to what meaningful requirements we could impose that would insure safety, I am unclear.
