Clarksville TN

I live in Clarksville TN and we are thinking about getting a fiberglass diver pool installed in our backyard. We have a big fenced backyard. Trying to figure out concrete decking plans, basic install comes with 5 ft on each side except 9 ft on diving board side. Here is our plan for the location.

I grew up in Cedar Hill. My wife doesn't want to spend lots of money on extras so I think we may get 7 ft of concrete on the north side of the pool and 3 ft on the south side. It seems the sun is more towards the south in the summer so that would put the chairs facing the sun during the summer. The backyard slopes slightly from south to north, the neighbors house is slightly up on a hill. My back yard pretty much levels out in the middle so the pool will be installed on mostly level ground. Diver pool is 38 ft x 16 ft. I think would like to get an extra 2 ft of concrete on the north side to get to 9 ft of concrete vs only 3 ft on the other side. $7 a sq/ft for extra concrete would equal $728 but would give more room for pool lounge chairs. I have a patio off the deck and I will build a paver with rock pathway that leads from there to the pool. I should get a contract from pool company today to review and possibly sign.
