The proposed clay tennis court is proposed at the normal <br /> tennis court orientation of north/south. Topography at the <br /> site is such that as the tennis court moves further from the <br /> side lot line, the topography steepens so that additional <br /> grading would be necessary and many additional trees would <br /> have to be destroyed to accomodate the tennis court. <br /> b.
