HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutes HO 05-23-22 Rebuttal to Public Comments: Peter Greco:
• The shed is approx. 100-ft away from my neighbor's home, and not right outside of his window
• We placed the shed at this location for convenience and access off the driveway. Due to a floodplain and slope,
we have no buildable area behind my house.
• My house is so far removed from public view on Ditch Road,you can't see the shed from the road
• My neighbor is moving away soon, so this won't affect him
• The shed is made by professional Amish builders and is made of high quality
Department Report: Angie Conn
• Staff recommends positive consideration of this variance with the adoption of the Petitioner's findings of fact
Board Comments: Leo Dierckman:
• Is the shed already built and in place?Peter Greco: Yes, it was delivered on a truck as already built.
• I would request that the Petitioner to plant trees/landscape, behind the shed for buffer. I don't believe a fence is
necessary. Peter Greco: I offered to plant some Norway Spruce trees behind the shed, and my neighbor did not
care for that. I will plant whatever is required or necessary. I measured 5-ft to 6-ft of space behind the shed and
the shared property line.
• I want the Petitioner to work with the Urban Forester on a landscape plan that will include the specific tree
species, spacing, and number of plantings required to provide that buffer. I want these plantings installed within
30 days of this approval.
• After a number of years,the trees will grow and will act as a natural buffer to your neighbor to the south
Approved 1-0 with the Conditions that a landscape plan is worked out and approved by the Urban Forester,and
the plantings are installed by the Petitioner within 30 days of the landscape plan approval.
