We closed on our new house on Dec 19th and then spent thirteen hours on the 20th moving all our belongings over. After that, we took the next couple of days to arrange most of our stuff and get unpacked. Then we had to work on getting the old place ready for renting again and finally having family over for the holidays. (That part was fun!)
I also went over and met the neighbors. They informed me they had already received notice from the town regarding my request for a Zoning exception. In this case, the exception is for building height only. The town has a height restriction of 17' (5m) (I believe) and I'm wanting to go 21' (6.4m) to allow for walking headroom on top of the boat.
The building idea is a wood framed, gambrel roof structure something like this:
The building will be 32' x 50' (9.7m x 15.2m)
If all goes accordingly, we plan on breaking ground sometime in April 2015.
In other news, I finally had a good excuse to buy the track saw on my shopping list!
(The floors of our new house are not completely flat due to settling. Some of the doors were dragging on the carpet and needed to be cut higher for clearance)
WOW - does this saw cut a nice line!
