In the three years the porch has been on, we have not had one complaint or bad comment
about it. In fact, the neighbor to the north just added the same style porch to his cottage

effect or cause problems for anyone'oh the beach and even though the Swenson cottage sits
further back, their lot is open and my porch is off from their side. Again, they, along
with the Awes on the south side, like the porch and are in agreement with our request for
a variance.
We use and enjoy the porch and: it has improved rhe appearance of an older cottage. We
hope that after the enclosed statements and pictures are reviewed, that you would see
fit to grant the variance, allowing us to keep something that hurts no one and adds a great
deal to our use and enjoyment of our cottage.
An approved jseptic system is to be installed the week of August- 18th and will be
completed by the hearing date in September.
