Belt routing problem

I'm having some big problems with my belt and it rubbing. Here is a diagram of how its routed at the moment:

Where the red is, its rubbing. When I first installed the belt, it was a bitch, but it had clearance. Now it stretched and is rubbing again. Anyone have any suggections? If I go another 1/2" shorter, its next to impossible to get on. Do I need to drill another hole for the tensioner so that it sits up further?

I should also add that I currently have a 71" belt.
