I think due to the significant size of the lot that the, the accessory, the garage, does not dominate the residential lot. I also think it's consistent with the rural lifestyle of the district and does not visually dominate the property. Um, the other criterion, Criterion C, that says the proposed alternative results in a benefit to the community that are equivalent to or better than compliance with subject standard. I feel that this criterion is significantly met and that having an enclosed garage structure so that your recreational equipment, vehicles, and other things that we all like to store in our garages is in an enclosed structure versus open to public view, I think that that is a— it is a betterment and in compliance with the standard. Thank you.
