Mr. Gareau clarified that the applicant was requesting a seconded detached garage not a second shed in fact the shed is not part of the variance review. Ms. Rudolph questioned if what is being built is a garage doesn't require a driveway. Mr. Gareau said he would prefer the matter be tabled so the case can be further researched.
