We,the Smiths, at 2995 Watertown Road are currently undertaking a project to"%v a shed to our property to store some of our yard tools, lawn tractor, etc. The shed O will conform to a covenant on our property to a uniform feel with our house and is being custom built to match the house and the playhouse located close to the building site. On Friday, our contractor took the designs into City of Orono to get the project building permit started. He brought in the original survey that was made of the house when it was built (2004 timeframe) and found that it was not current enough. We could either have a new survey drawn or follow an exemption where we asked you to sign off on the changes. In order to save a few dollars and some time we thought that we would seek out your approval rather than have a new survey drawn. In order to get this exemption,we will have to stake out the site and have it reviewed during the permitting process, and we believe there is virtually no likelihood of infringing upon the set back from the property line. We have included some of the drawings of the design (there will be a few changes, outlined below). I also included a map of the property with a white box denoting the location. It would be great to get your approval by end of day Wednesday so that we can get through the permitting process by the end of the week and get the project started. Please sign this cover sheet and include your name and address (which should suffice for the city). Feel free to drop it in our mailbox or swing by the house. We certainly appreciate your cooperation. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to call me at (952) 913-7588. .s; Chris Smith 2995 Watertown Road l� r C)f 6 ) Modifications to Drawings: - Extend the side roof overhangs to 14.5" - Extend the front and back roof overhangs to 12" - Decrease base height of building from 8' to 7' (there will be an additional 4' of height above this to the top line of the roof) - Add basic shovel closet on back apron behind shed ¢got, � YI cr 0 m `.
