The existing lakeside patio was constructed over a basement level well <br /> room;the cap to the well room is leaking and the owner needs to repair the area. Since the <br /> existing patio needs to be removed to conduct the repairs,the applicant proposes a <br /> reconfiguration of the patio to add landings under new lake side doors,within the required lake <br /> yard; a variance is necessary. The existing hardcover level will be reduced. <br /> *Please see the applicant's reconciliation of the hardcover percentage inconsistencies between <br /> the 2002 and 2019 surveys.The lot area discrepancy between the two surveys is not <br /> uncommon, however it is noteworthy that the hardcover square footage is consistent. <br /> Planned improvements include a reconfiguration of the patio, addition of two gravel areas <br /> within a bluestone edging. The gravel is not considered hardcover. <br /> LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET <br /> Section 78-305 -Setbacks: <br /> LR-1A Required Existing Proposed <br /> Street/Rear 50' 116.8' No Change <br /> West Side 30' 65' No Change <br /> Lakeshore 75' House 52.3' House—No Change <br /> Patio 43' Patio—No Change <br /> The average lakeshore setback for this property is set by a line <br /> Average Lakeshore drawn between the adjacent homes at 1387 Orono Lane and <br /> 1380 Orono Lane.The entire home on the subject property is <br /> situated lakeward of the average lakeshore setback line. <br />
