He said that the Board had requested a site plan showing how they are addressing grading on the site. He said that the trees in front of the property are the owners and have been removed. He said that they moved the proposed house and pulled in the chimney to get it off the property line. Dave said that everything will be graded and that they are removing the existing storm drain to the hillside. Clemens said he thought it was going to work for grading.
