I would ask the board to stipulate that as an officer of the court, had he been called to testify,
he would verify the truth or veracity of my representations, and he would so adopt them as his own.

Okay, Mr. Johnson slash Mr. Santos, please proceed.
Well, I could present it.
No, I'm sorry, Mr. Johnson.
Mr. Santos would have to start.
And as necessary, you can chime in relating to the plan.
Mr. Santos, you're up. You can present your case.
Yeah, I'm waiting for Mr. Ken to help me out.
Yeah, but you have to start. Just tell them what you're doing.
Okay, so I want to extend my garage as you see on the picture.
I don't know if Mr. Ken put in the picture on the screen.
Yes, it's on the screen.
Yeah, I have a garage before it was very tight and it was falling apart.
So I tried to fix but when I put down I realized it was in very bad shape and I tried to fix.
and I tried to make a little large
but I didn't know
where you have like a limit to go
I measured from another side
for the house so I have 10
foot on the other side so I realized
I could make another 10 foot
for another side which I
have before 15
foot now we just have 10
so and I built
the garage but my big
mistake as I started was in the
April was
COVID the
township and the city was closed and then I was just removing just fixed because the roof was
failing then I started to do the construction everything myself if my helps my people here
and I did it I started without the permit so now so we try to make everything right
so and then I asked for the permit to finish because the car the garage I had before didn't
fit the car. So, and I have
my car on the street.
I mean, on the
car, my car and my car, my wife's
car. So, sometimes the car
had to be on the street. I just tried to make
the car safe for my wife
to start parking inside the
garage.
If you can,
sorry to interrupt you, if you can bring up the
photographs of the current condition
of the garage. There you go.
Thank you.
So, basically
with the exception of siding or whatever it is you're going to have on the facade, the garage
is complete? No, it's not complete. Everything is just the roof and the walls, of course. So if
you can see where the old driveway concrete was, that's what the garage was before. So I extend
like you see like almost four foot. All right. So you're going to do a paving. All right. I see.
Yeah, my request is to extend the drive rate, too, to make it a little bigger.
So that'll leave a 20-foot side yard, is that correct?
That's correct, 10 on each side.
I don't know if we need anything else though.
I'll ask the board, is there anything else we need?
Okay, so why don't we do this?
Anyone else?
Was there anyone who liked to testify in this case?
