I will follow up with a mailed copy. You said to send a copy to Tom
Steffens, but I could find no address on your request letter, unless he is at
the same address as Tracey Wheeler in Moorhead City. If he is at a different
address please send it to me. Email is fine if it is convenient for you.

Dear Mr. Zarzecki,
Please consider the following.
Originally our house was sited on our lot so that there would be no encroachment
into either zone one or zone two of the wetland areas. We have made every attempt to
conform to North Carolina code as it concerns protection of wetland habitat.
However, when we visited the site with our builder on April I 1 `" of this year to
site the house for building, he (Mr. Stuart Hardy), and the surveyor, pointed out to us that
the current orientation of our house would most probably give us a view of the front of
the house in lot #20 (our lot is 421 and the end lot) vice a water view. At that point, we
jointly concluded that there was no alternative but to rotate the position of the house on
the lot. Consequently. we reoriented the house to face directly across the creek which put.
us into zone two of the wetland area and a variance was subsequently applied for.
We would appreciate your consideration in this matter. At this point we have
invested at least $3000 in house plans, approximately $57,000 for a lot with a water view..
our own home has been sold, and we have committed in a contract to moving out of our
current residence before the end of this calendar year. We would be placed in a most
difficult position if the variance is not approved as submitted
We therefore request a waiver so that the house may be situated as shown on the
original plan which was submitted on April 16, 2003, to your office.
Sincerely,
? I
