They will <br />keep the perimeter walls and plan to remodel the interior of the home with the addition of an <br />upper story, new front porch, a wider deck and removing and replacing the driveway to better <br />serve the property. Majority of the home is currently placed within the 75' lake yard setback as <br />well as the side yard and rear yard setbacks. The upper story addition is an increase in the <br />massing of the home in these encroachments. The applicants are asking for setback variances <br />for this addition. <br />They are proposing to widen the existing deck from 11' to 21' which increases the massing in the <br />average lakeshore setback but it is proposed to encroach no closer to the lake then the existing <br />deck. They will also move the 1- stall tuck -under garage to the east (other) side of the home <br />which has room to create a 2 stall tuck -under garage. They are proposing to move the driveway <br />which alters the existing hardcover on the site. The proposed driveway will serve the double <br />garage and is 16' wide where 8' is the maximum width in the shoreland setback zone. <br />LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET <br />Section 78-350 and 78-1680 Setbacks: <br />DISTRICT LR -1C <br />Required <br />Existing <br />Proposed (No Changes) <br />Rear <br />30' <br />6' <br />No Change <br />West Side <br />7.5' <br />9.5' <br />9.5' (Meets requirement) <br />East Side <br />7.5' <br />1.4' <br />No Change <br />Lakeshore <br />75' <br />50.9' <br />No Change <br />Average Lakeshore <br />Does not meet <br />50.9' <br />50.9 ' <br />
