A 388 square foot portion of the home is <br /> within the 75-foot setback; in addition to some stone stairs and retaining walls,there is an <br /> existing 158 patio on the walkout level of west side of the home and a smaller, 38 square foot <br /> landing on the west side all within the 75-foot setback.The applicant is proposing to construct <br /> the new home to fit within the existing footprint on the lake side of the home (encroaching into <br />
