FILE #LA20-000022 <br />21 September 2020 <br />Page 2 of 10 <br /> <br />showing the proposed improvements. Staff’s review is based on the original civil plans dated <br />August 26, 2020. An updated certificate of survey is required. The application is considered to be <br />incomplete and the survey must be submitted in order to proceed to City Council. <br /> <br />As drawn, the detached garage is shown where it was proposed in a previous plan and does not <br />meet the current required 15-foot setbacks from the property lines. Upon revision, Staff <br />anticipates the site plan to reflect a conforming detached garage. <br /> <br />Practical Difficulties Analysis <br />Applicant Submittal Information: The applicant has identified the lot’s size and the floodplain as <br />practical difficulties supporting the requested variances. Additionally, they have provided <br />supporting documentation regarding Practical Difficulties attached as Exhibit B, and should be <br />asked for additional testimony regarding the application. <br /> <br />Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: Staff finds practical difficulties based on the size of the <br />property, the areas impacted by the 1% chance of annual flood elevation of the property to <br />support the variances for lot area and width, as well as the requested 75-foot hardcover variance, <br />and lake setback variance for the new home. The applicant has provided grading improvements <br />which appear to offer relief to the neighbors regarding the floodplain as well as created areas of <br />infiltration to mitigate the impacts of the home on the property. <br /> <br />LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET <br /> <br />Section 78-305; 78-1279 - Setbacks: <br />LR-1A Required Proposed <br />Rear/Street 50’ house <br />15’ detached garage <1000 sf <br />154’ house <br />**10’ detached garage ( <br />East Side 17’ house* <br />15’ detached garage <1000 sf <br />30’ house <br />**±14’ detached garage <br />West Side 17’ house* 30.5’ <br />Lakeshore 75’ ±70’ house <br />±50’ patio/deck <br />Average Lakeshore The proposed home will meet the average lakeshore setback. <br />*78-305(b)(1) Exceptions: Side yard setback.
