In the winter on really snowy days it can become a huge mess in the garage if you bring in a couple vehicles that are snow covered. I've resorted to brushing off heavy snow from my vehicles before parking them which can suck when it is cold outside.
Interesting idea, but I have read you can't do that in Calgary without tying into the sewage system. Going tall would be nice, but I don't want to shade to much of the yard. I don't ever plan on putting a lift in, but 9" ceilings with the scissor truss should give me enough height to manoeuvre 4x8 sheets of wood.

I'll also be putting in skylights, as I can't put a window in on the property line side.

Planning just gave me an email address for my alley grade question, so I'll have to wait on that...
