The Outcome of Saturday

Ok so Saturday a surveyor came to our house to appraise and survey the land. He let us know that the city is planning on building a right turn lane at the corner of Shed Rd and Swan Lake Rd. Because of this the house next door to ours on the corner will have to be torn down. Our house on the other hand will now be the corner house on the corner of now two lanes of traffic going from both Shed Rd and Swan Lake Rd. The city will also be buying us out of 20 ft of our front yard so that they can widen the roads. So not only will we have to hear construction for a while but now we have less of a yard for Larissa to play in and cars coming from every direction around us. The construction will be done no matter if we refuse the cities offer or not because it is for "the good of the city" so now we have to wait at least 60 days to see what they will be offering us for our 20 ft of land and for the loss of value to our home.
