Mr. Gonzales indicated that he had no room to put the boat on the side of the house and there is no access to get the boat into the back yard. He showed the board members pictures to prove his hardship. Mr. Maloney questioned if the boat would be there all year round. Mr. Gonzales replied no. He stores it at Vermillion and he would just bring it to his house to work on it or wash it in the spring. Mr. Maloney questioned how many days out of the year he would have his boat there. Mr. Gonzales repIied that he would only wash it once in the spring and prepare it for the summer. Mr. Kremzar questioned if those were his plans and that was what he was going to do. Mr. Gonzales indicated that he has to bring it back for motor work. Mr. Kreinzar questioned how long that would take. Mr. Gonzales replied probably about a week.

Mr. Koberna questioned how this kind of thing is handled in the Building 17ept. Mr. Conway suggested that the only way they go out is if there is a complaint. Mr. Koberna indicated that the board is trying to give him a little break, but he is going to have to get it out of there. Mr. Gonzales replied that it will be out of there.
