Pole building built too close to the road in Felton
Summary
Curtis Cross built a 24-by-24-foot pole building 57 feet from Ironmine Road — closer than the county's plan approval showed. A county inspector missed the error during the footer inspection, and staff recommended letting the building stay rather than forcing the owner to move it.
