Statement of Grounds
49 Felt Street
We are proposing to build a 12'x 12' 3-season sun porch off the
back of the house with an attached 9'x16' open air deck.
Most of the houses in our neighborhood have similar sun porches
and decks. This small addition to the house will be built as an
extension of the side lines of the main house. It will not affect
traffic or parking.
F
The utilities will not be affected in the area as we are only adding
plugs and lights for a 12'x12' room.
The sunporch and deck will be built on footings that have been
poured into sonar-tubes 4' deep. There will be no impact on
drainage.
As stated previously a great many houses in the neighborhood
already have similar sunporches built on the back end of their
houses so it will fit in with the rest of the neighborhood.
There will be no impact on city tax base or employment as we are
not adding any bedrooms.
