Dear Mr. Neubecker:
I own Chalet#3 in the Hamlet, adjacent to Hamlet Townhouses 5 and 6, located at 2014 West Gore Creek
Drive.We are aware of the remodel project planned for that property by the owners, Holly Proctor and John
Hutto. We have received Notice of their request for review of variances as it relates to the storage area under
the deck on the west side of their property.
We are in full support of the storage area and feel strongly that the storage area should not be restricted to 5' in
height with minimal access of a 12 square foot door. It is our understanding that the storage area will not be
climate controlled nor equipped with any utilities, and therefore, its only purpose is for general storage. The point
of the storage area is to enclose and protect personal items and as such, serves the interest of the entire
complex. The HOA Design Review Board has approved the exterior aesthetic, and I believe TOV Design and
Review Board has also approved it.
We respectfully request that this variance be granted by the PEC so that the storage area can be usable for its
intended purpose. As homeowners of the Hamlet, we support this onsite improvement and regard this project as
enhancing security and the visual aesthetic for the property.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best regards,
,mr01511141,
J. Richard Caudle
