Narrative:

After landing on runway 23R at cle was told to hold short of runway 23L. I exited the runway at taxiway K and held short of hold short lines nearest runway 23L. I was informed by tower I had crossed the hold short line. The connecting taxiway K is very short there and there are 2 sets of hold short lines. In most cases we hold short of the one closest to the runway we are told to hold short of. That's what I did. The hold short that tower wanted is closest to runway 23R and not runway 23L. Maybe a note could be put on the 10-7 or shown on the 10-9 or tower could say hold short of runway 23L at the first set of hold short lines.

Narrative: AFTER LNDG ON RWY 23R AT CLE WAS TOLD TO HOLD SHORT OF RWY 23L. I EXITED THE RWY AT TXWY K AND HELD SHORT OF HOLD SHORT LINES NEAREST RWY 23L. I WAS INFORMED BY TWR I HAD CROSSED THE HOLD SHORT LINE. THE CONNECTING TXWY K IS VERY SHORT THERE AND THERE ARE 2 SETS OF HOLD SHORT LINES. IN MOST CASES WE HOLD SHORT OF THE ONE CLOSEST TO THE RWY WE ARE TOLD TO HOLD SHORT OF. THAT'S WHAT I DID. THE HOLD SHORT THAT TWR WANTED IS CLOSEST TO RWY 23R AND NOT RWY 23L. MAYBE A NOTE COULD BE PUT ON THE 10-7 OR SHOWN ON THE 10-9 OR TWR COULD SAY HOLD SHORT OF RWY 23L AT THE FIRST SET OF HOLD SHORT LINES.
