Though the rehabilitation of the garden house would be the optimum choice to maintain the design of the <br />garden, staff sadly recommends approval of the request to demolish the existing garden house. The <br />photographs taken recently should well document the construction of the existing garden shed and its <br />location on Dushane Court for research purposes of future owners. <br />Staff recommends that the Commission could approve a new garden house with the same <br />dimensions and roof slope. As the current owners have spent a substantial amount of money on the <br />main house and other garden elements, the date of the re -construction of a garden house should be left to <br />the owners' budget coordination and discretion. <br />Though staff would first recommend the removal of the entire fence, the taming of the overgrown bushes <br />and the use of a security camera to deter thieves in place of the fence, the fence has stood for at least ten <br />years and the owners have no desire to remove it. Without the existing garden house, the fence will have <br />a large hole. A new garden house could be constructed just in front of the fence. Staff recommends <br />approval of the installation of matching wood fencing material that will weather in time to fill the <br />gap in the existing fence. <br />
