An existing access agreement and a note on the prior plat controls the access to this property. The access maintenance agreement should be revised to include both new lots.

There is an existing encroachment of a single story frame structure across the boundary between Lots 32A and 33A near the south line. It had been recommended that this encroachment should be removed, or the property line should be adjusted around the structure. Since there are separate mortgage financing on each lot, it was not feasible to adjust the lot line at this time. The applicant, Mr. Lon Kinnie, advised the encroachment was due to a roof overhang and would be removed. He also advised that the storage shed located on the south boundary of Lot 32A would be removed.
