Filed by Peter Michael Jr(PJ)&Lauren Marie Greco,owners.
Petitioner: Peter Greco:
• I have nothing else to add than what I presented in my info packet. I'm here to answer any questions.
Public Comments:
Ray Kiswain,adjacent neighbor to the south: I object to this variance request. Mr. Greco placed his shed in front of both
of our houses. It's a massive shed. I can see outside my window. I believe this shed structure will hurt my property value.
I have listed my property for sale, and I worry it will hurt the future sale of my home and property. We have a shared
driveway,and the first thing you see when you drive up to both properties is the shed. The petitioner has 5 acres,and he
chooses to place it right here. There's space on the northern portion of his property and he selected to place is on the
southern portion of property.
