Also present was Tom Griffin, Contractor for the project. The existing house is pre-existing, non -confirming. The existing deck was originally built at an angle and does not meet their current needs. The site plan and building plans depicted the proposed extension for the deck project. The addition indicated a setback of 10.7 ft. from the side yard which is no more non -conforming than the existing dimension at 10.6 ft. Mr. Richard Monroe stated that the hearing was postponed because the Board wanted to get clarification regarding the comments submitted by Catherine Laurent, DPW Director. Mr. Monroe had a conversation with Ms. Laurent after the last meeting, and suggested that drywells be installed for the roof runoff.
