little bit within there and now it brought us even further away from the road anyway. >> Do you have drawings to revised drawings for that? >> Yeah, I've sent some email to I don't know if they have this new one. So, we actually gained a
little bit from the street also. And then there I have the old ones, too. This was the old that was the old layout. >> So, we just kind of rotated it counterclockwise to squeak it in there. So, it's it, you know, it's it's within our boundaries of basically everything.
>> So, you're 40 from the front. >> Yeah. >> It was 37 before. So, he's got gain room. >> And your 10 from the side. >> Then the five over here. Then we got our 20 there and 55 in from the back. But obviously we're more than enough out there.

such a big building. I just was hoping he would I know he was been talking about it and he's cleared the land out in the back and that's where I was under the impression it was going which would be a perfect place for it in my opinion. Uh right now as it stands I'm going to
be looking out my kitchen window and looking at a 20ft building. And the other issue I have is it's going to have rain water bar coming off which I don't know if you realize is that whenever it rains a heavy rain for any period of time. I have a puddle that
settles right out back. And now with the building right beside my house I don't know if I'm going to end up with another water issue. I mean I don't have any I anything he wants to put the building in. I don't have a problem with that right now. It's
just the location. And what's that you like me to do? >> Huh? >> What would you like me to do? >> I thought you were going to walk back.

how the land is up there. on the properties like his his um his canopy with his garage just right off across right on the property line. >> Yeah. And because the land is so small
up there. So it's >> is there any way you can >> I can push it back. So I can push it back another 10 is not that building is almost bigger than my house.

I said we had discussed this before, but I was under the impression it was going to clear the land and it was going to go out in the back. would have been ideal. >> How was the land itself? I mean, you where you're showing it, uh, in this drawing here, it looks like you could
put it almost anywhere. We don't have any kind of a >> I I could push it back somewhat, but as far as I don't know how far >> Can you come up here for a second? >> Sure. >> Okay. This is the main house, right? >> Yeah. Yeah.
>> Okay. You want Can you push it back this way a little bit? I I could come back here. Well, >> if you can come back here and push it. >> See, here here's his house right here. Y. >> So, I'm already kind of like past it.
>> Can you push it back? >> I go back another 10 ft. And, you know, I'll be clearing this house. >> And is there any reason why you can't come this way? >> Well, I got my septic over here. You know, I >> How far How far are you from? >> Right now, I'm 20 some odd feet. Can you
push it this way and that way a little bit? >> I could. >> That way it will eliminate a lot of problems. >> I could. >> And if you want, we'll continue this meeting until next month. >> And if you get somebody >> Well, what what's the recommendation pushing it back?
>> Well, if if you can put it instead of 10 ft, bring it back this way a little bit more. >> Only probably around cuz I I maybe 5 ft or so. Yeah. Bring it back this way. 5 ft and back this way. Another 20. >> I could do that.

>> further back and another 5 ft that way. That would be ideal. >> All right. We're going to we're going to ask him to redo this >> and come back next month. >> Okay. >> And we'll vote on it next month. >> Could I just do that? Do I have to get it reserveyed or could I just put the measurements?
>> No, just have the guy >> just have redraw it. >> Just write down what five ft and 10 ft or so. >> It's 20 ft going out. >> 15 something on the side. >> Yep. And that's >> 20 ft going out.
>> 20 ft backwards. Okay, it would be perfect. >> Okay. >> All right. >> Yep. >> Thank you. >> We can see where the house is right here. It does look >> So that's my dad's carport right there.
>> And the lot line is right there. >> Sure. >> So his his window is right there. So he's literally going to look out >> to the the garage. >> That's reasonable. No question at all. >> So >> yeah,
>> it's literally right >> right where the fence is. >> So this way here. So if we go back >> and then >> you can keep that coffee. We >> go back this way here. >> There's plenty of space like way out in the back. >> You got room on the property to push it back a little bit.
