Jeff and Gina Lathan were present at the meeting; Jeff read a letter from his attorney that was written to the Town Board.

There have been several attempts made to the Batavia Zoning Officer with no response. Councilman Young has also tried to have the Zoning Officer contact the Lathan’s to inspect the deck. This will be further investigated.
