The <br /> commission should review the items for consideration to address the proposed variances. The <br /> bluff area covers most of the shoreline limiting the accessibility and use of the property. The <br /> proposed storage shed within the 75' lakeyard would be used to house lifejackets, paddles and <br /> lake use accessories, consistent with water oriented storage permitted, though in a larger scale. <br /> The building proposed in the bluff setback are shown to be built on stilts to give a tree house <br /> cabin feel and protect the grading and bluff area. The overall proposed Master Plan is using the <br /> land in a reasonable manner and taking into considerations the unique characteristics of the <br /> property. The variance from the 1 year action on the variance appears appropriate in this <br /> situation as the applicant has developed a comprehensive master plan intended to take years to <br /> fully implement. <br />
