It will be a permitted use. Also, since the house its location have existed for so long, then we would consider that building setback as grandfathered, or LEGALLY non conforming. Please accept this email as documentation that the house front yard setback is grandfathered. As a sidenote, we cannot find proof that this plat was ever recorded.

On a side note, when i was reading through the ordinance I got to the section of illegal, non conforming uses. The set- back still concerns me given that there is this "non- recorded" document out there for Days Survey. When I come to sell the property, I don't want someone to say that it is an illegal, nonconforming use because of this document. I would be happy to make it part of speech on Monday, or if I have a document from your office that you reviewed the setbacks and it is no big deal, I would feel more comfortable. Thoughts?
