In September, 2016 <br />the City issued a stop work notice for unpermitted construction of a new screen porch on the <br />lake side of the home. A follow up inspection in July of 2017 showed that the porch had not <br />been removed; no permit or variance applications had been submitted. The owners responded <br />to the City's July 21, 2017 letter (Exhibit F) and met with staff to discuss the process for applying <br />for an after -the -fact variance. The variance application was submitted on September 20th and <br />made complete (all information submitted) on October 11tH <br />The screen porch was constructed in the place of a smaller 26 foot wide 2nd story deck which <br />extended 11 feet from the house toward the lake. An 11.6' x 11.6' deck was built where that <br />portion of the existing deck was located, and next to that a new 25.6' x 31.5' roofed screen <br />porch now extends 31.5 feet toward the lake; 20 feet lakeward of the average lakeshore setback <br />line and approximately 2 feet into the 75 -foot setback. <br />LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET <br />Section 78-330 &78-1279 - Setbacks: <br />LR -113 <br />Required <br />Existing <br />Proposed <br />Rear / Street <br />30' <br />31.3' house <br />No change <br />NW Side <br />10' <br />50.2' <br />No change <br />SE Side <br />10' <br />46.5' <br />No change <br />Lakeshore <br />75' <br />81' <br />73' <br />Average Lakeshore <br />The pre-existing deck was conforming; the new screen porch extends <br />20 feet lakeward of the average lakeshore setback line. <br />
