thirty (30) feet.
3) The proposed 18' x 26' detached garage will be constructed to within ten (10) feet of the

5) Existing storage sheds and a portable garage will be removed from the property. New
garage will be used for storage of mowing equipment and a plow truck.
6) Neighbors (Mike Henry & Bob LaClair) were concerned about the number of vehicles
parked on the property. Requesting that "no vehicles" be parked within the front yard.
Board stipulated that in order to protect character of the neighborhood that no parking
within the front yard be allowed.
