1 OFA Dear Colleague letter on Rescinding guidance concerning waiver and expenditure authority under section 1115 of the Social Security Act Published: August 30, 2017. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is committed to helping low-income families transition from welfare to work.
We added a front porch to our house that is 36 feet long and 8 feet 3 inches wide. One thing that I think people tend to overlook - but what some posters have stated - is how much useable space is taken up by porch posts/columns and railings.
With the porch in place you won't have to worry about any of that. You should get plenty of natural light without the glare. Your DH is right in thinking that an extra 2' would help with usability of the porch. My parents' front porch is 10' deep and they are easily able to use it for parties and such.
