Here’s a situation in which no home builder wants to find itself. The Daytona Beach News-Journal Online reports:
Travis Martin of Trayton Homes informed the Lake Helen City Commission on Thursday of plans he’s never before had to make. The builder accidentally constructed a home on city-owned land and plans to pick it up and move it.
Martin, who started construction on the house in December, will work with contractors to move the home into its proper place in the 300 block of West Ohio Avenue, said Becky Witte, city administrator of Lake Helen. …
… “Our survey markers, whether they were relocated or moved or whatnot, they weren’t necessarily in the right place,” Martin said in a phone interview Monday. ”[The surveyors] came back out and lo and behold we found out that our house was about 50 feet off of where it is supposed to be.”
