The proposed garage addition should be offset to meet the required 15' <br /> street setback and the footprint kept at no more than 1,000 s.f. to keep <br /> it from becoming an oversize accessory structure subject to much stricter <br /> setback standards. <br /> 4. Applicant revised the initial proposal to eliminate the need for a street setback <br /> variance and proposes to construct one additional garage stall which yields a <br /> footprint of the garage being less than 1,000 s.f. and meeting the required 15' <br /> street setback. <br /> 5. The City Engineer has reviewed the proposed driveway relocation and finds the <br /> driveway configuration feasible and appropriate. <br /> 6. The applicant submitted a new site plan and revised proposal after the initial <br /> • Planning Commission review and recommendation which took place in July <br /> 1997. The new site plan and construction plans indicate that 40% of the <br /> existing house will be incorporated into the proposed additions, resulting in 20% <br /> of the final product being the pre-existing house. The Planning Commission <br /> reviewed tlus revised proposal on August 18, 1997 and concluded that this level <br /> of preservation will not trigger the need for lot area and width variances nor the <br /> need to relocate the residence to meet setbacks. The City Council concurs with <br /> the Planning Commission's finding. <br /> 7. The revised plans indicate an additional bulk of structure encroaching the <br /> average lakeshore setback as compared to the plans approved in 1996. Planning <br /> Commission reviewed these plans on August 18, 1997 and concliided that this <br /> change in the nature of the average lakeshore setback encroachment has no � <br /> � impact on views enjoyed by neighboring property owners. The City Counc'il <br /> concurs with this conclusion. <br /> 8. All other aspects of the request including continuation of the existing structure <br /> setback encroachments of the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone and the 30' side <br /> , setback, as well as the originally proposed hardcover reductions and revisions are <br /> identical in scope and magnitude with the 1996 approval.
