Chris Poirer spoke to the Village with a flooding issue on her property due to the new construction and the storage shed that was first put five feet off the property line. The shed was moved to 15 feet off the property line and moved back which then obstructed her view on the river. There was much discussion on the deed restrictions and Village code. The Village will look into any changes made to the latest Village code. We have a new attorney whom will have to review this matter.
