from where that is, probably more than that. Mrs. Tymkewicz said her only concern was about drainage. Mr. Burke said they are putting in their own sewers. He said Mrs. Tymkewicz has a drain in the back corner of her yard that goes out to Michael Dr. He said her yard is 4 ft. below his yard. He added that the City came out a few years back because of a flooding problem and they leveled out those backyards on Michael and made those yards 4 ft. below the yards on Georgette. As far as any water run-off, his yard will stay level and they have the sewer line. They have the sewer line for the gutter of the house on the south side and they will have the sewer line in the middle of the extended driveway they are going to build, and also a line for the 2 gutters for the garage. Two lines will go out and meet one line and go to the existing gutter drain on the house now. Mr. Maloney asked if he will have those plans presented to the Engineering Department for approval. Mr. Burke replied yes, when he gets the electrical. They already bought the garage and when he gets it all drawn up he will bring the plans up. He said he has to show Engineering the electrical and the plumbing, the sewer line. Mr. Maloney said if the board approves this they can also have it conditioned on the approval of the Engineering Department for the drainage. Mr. Burke said there will be no added build up in the back 20 ft. of the property. The garage is where the slab is located and has to be dug out, but it will be the same level as it is now. He took trees out and used a lot of dirt from the north side of his lot to fill in the holes. He is going to put that dirt back and level it out. Mrs. Burke referred to the photos and pointed out neighboring yards. She said they want to stay in continuity with the neighbor's garages. Mr. Maloney said if the shed doesn't make it, then it's not going to be there. Mr. Kremzar asked if they have the right to put up another one. Mr. Maloney said no, if the first shed is dismantled and they will put up a new shed, they would have to file for a permit. Mr. Burke said they are just going to move it. Mr. Maloney said they can move it but if it falls apart, it's gone. J.
