Jaime,
It's Monday and my brain is not thinking clearly! The trash enclosure falls completely within the setback, with only
about 4ft outside the setback.
Let us know if this will be acceptable. We didn't receive any comments during plan review and wanted to bring to the
city's attention before the structure is built.
Thank you,
Margaret Grissom

Margaret,
I cannot. This is a zoning issue and must get Zoning approval. I have copied a couple of people from
zoning. Please follow up with them to make this determination.

Curtis,
Can you verify the storage building is ok to be slightly within the building setback? The rear corner of
the storage bldg. is about 3ft from the property line.
If you could let us know today, we would appreciate it.
Thanks,
