Ijust purchased a new one which is larger, 12' X 24' and the old one was 12' X 16'. I have myoId documents from 1990 when I put it in and I was told to place the old one 10 feet from the side. This time I bought a little bigger for storage. Is the new shed already there? No, it is on order. Do you want the new shed in the same place? Can you move the location at all? Not really. I have a pool near it and I have a garden in this area. What about the other side? I have trees over here and I am on a comer lot too. Explained to the members how his property is laid out.

Page 3 Minutes of April 8, 2008 If you drive here on Orange Court I'm sure these neighbors wouldn't want a shed right in the middle of our yard. We are a comer lot and on the other side it would be in the middle. I think we should have a site visit on this. In 1990 there were no restrictions but after 1995 they made a distinction between a large or small structure. In 1990 it was just 10 feet from the side yard regardless of size. Now if it is over 200 sf then it must be 20 feet from the side line of the property. It won't be closer to the side. It will start in the same footprint and come out closer into the yard toward the house. How do you determine the front of the house? It is determined where you gain entry. From there the rear and side is determined. My understanding is the setback will remain the same. We will set your site visit for April 1 th and your public hearing for April 22od. Thank you. I would like to acknowledge what a great job Tom DellaCorte did tonight. I second that. All agreed. Motion to adjourn. Second the motion. All present voted aye.
