A permit had been issued <br /> for removal of the existing house. <br /> Smith was informed that the property is consistent in size to other lots in the area. <br /> There were no public comments. <br /> Gaffron said the application would be heard at the February 23 Council meeting. <br /> Smith moved, McMillan seconded, to approve Application#2334 for lot area variance. <br /> • Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br /> (#11) #2335 LAWRENCE MOLSATHER AND LINDA SALLEE, 3285 CARMEN <br /> ROAD -VARIANCES- 9:59-10:41 P.M. <br /> The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. <br /> The Applicants were present. <br /> Bressler distributed pictures of the property. The application is a request to rebuild and <br /> expand the existing deck on the lakeside of the residence requiring variances for structural <br /> coverage, 0-75' hardcover, lakeshore setback, and average lakeshore setback. The current <br /> deck is 2'5" wide and located underneath the existing 3.4' overhang. Bressler indicated the <br /> deck could be expanded to a 3.4'width without increasing the structural coverage, <br /> hardcover, or encroachment on setbacks. Bressler noted that the hardcover calculations <br /> by surveyor did not include the overhang and calculations were adjusted by staff to reflect <br /> the overhang in structural coverage and hardcover amounts. <br /> Bressler said the proposed deck would be 6'7" beyond the roof line. The deck may impact <br /> the views for the neighboring property. Staff recommended the deck be scaled back to the <br /> width of the overhang. The deck as it exists is not functional. Bressler reviewed Staffs <br /> recommendation as outlined in the information packet. <br /> • <br /> 20 <br />
