p To:Planning Commission Chairman Kelley Orono Planning Commission Members City Administrator Bernhardson From Michael P. Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator Date:August 13, 1990 Subject:#1576 John & Kit Wojcik, 3310 Bayside Road Variance - Public Hearing Zoning District - LR-IA, Single family lakeshore residential, 2 acre, unsewered Application - Request for side setback variance to construct additions to existing residence lot. List of Exhibits Exhibit A Exhibit B Exhibit C Exhibit D Exhibit E Application Plat Map Property Owners List Survey Construction Plans Pertinent Pacts - 1. Applicants existing residence is 18.7' from the side lot line where a 30' setback is normally required. Applicant proposes additions to the existing residence, which include a proposed covered porch that will be located 27.7' from the side lot line. 2. The proposed room addition, as well as a proposed porch and deck addition on the south end of the house, both meet the 30' setback. Only the entryway covered porch is the subject of this variance request. Discussion The proposed additions will not increase the number of bedrooms in the house, but will add one bathroom. The City Council reviewed the issue of expansion of this house as an administrative appeal, and has granted approve 1 for the applicants to proceed with additions subject to documenting the status of the septic system in the chain of title of the property. The house site on the adjacent property to the east will be approximately 150-200' to the rear, hence the proposed additions will not intensify the perceived density of the neighborhood. The proposed additions are no closer to the side lot line than the existing house. The hardship is the location of the existing house, with the intent to provide a more functional entryway. Staff Recommendation Staff would recommand approv.l, based on the findings noted above. Isv
