Unpermitted pool decking at 2082 Fontenay Place

A couple built extra pool decking without a permit, poking into the subdivision's protected 32-foot rear setback. They paid a $15,000 fine in mayor's court and now want to keep it, arguing it fixed backyard flooding. The board votes on the plat amendment and variance May 20.
