He has-two small additions, the first.consists of a small 12 x 8 addition in the back of the house off the current back bathroom and that will house a laundry, and access to the basement. The only access to the basement is through the bulk head. The other addition is 6' x 13' which is a second bathroom with a handicapped shower. He is short 14 inches on the back corner because the lot line is not parallel with the typography of the land. He provided photos of the area and a rendering of what the new additions will look like. He believes this project will keep the esthetics of the house as it currently stands today. The Board reviewed the plans and wanted to know if the platform deck in the rear had a foundation.
