is all one level.

Mr. Johnston:
The deck isn't going to come out fUl1her then it is.

No further than the stoop. Exactly the same. Straight out.

Any problems with the septic in the way?
Ms. Natkiel:
The septic is 19 or 20 feet from the back of the house. The deck is only

footings will be spaced far enough away. The tank is 19 or 20 feet from
the house.

compared to lot size.
