Vice Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Vandenkooy if he made any changes to Exhibit A-6; he replied no. Vice Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Vandenkooy where the aerial photo was taken from; he said from the DEP web site. Vice Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Vandenkooy if the DEP site provided a date when the aerial phot was taken; he said he does not have that information with him. Mr. Vandenkooy stated that there are a lot of larger accessory structures near the site and identified their location on Exhibit A-6. Mr. Vandenkooy stated that if the proposed garage was built any smaller it would not be as aesthetically appealing due to the size of the house and the property. He said that the proposed structure will be more complimentary at that size rather then what is allowed by Ordinance due to the area. Mr. Bullock stated that Mr. Vandenkooy cannot testify that Exhibit A-6 is the current condition of the site because he does not know what year the photo was taken. There were no further questions for Mr. Vandenkooy from the Board Members or the Board Professionals. There were no members of the public that had any questions for Mr. Vandenkooy.
