Zoning File #1559 July 12, 1990 Page 2 of 3 B) An average lakeshore setback variance is required for construction of the new deck. Because the neighboring residence to the east is located only 14* from the street right-of-way, the average setback line by definition runs through the applicants' existing house. C) Existing hardcover in the 75-250' zone is 43.6% where only 25% is normally allowed. Applicants propose net additional hardcover of 8.4% for a total of 52.4%. There is the possibility of reducing hardcover significantly if the extremely large bituminous surface driveway is decreased in size. 3.Applicants propose to combine Lot 19 with Lots 20 and 21, All setbacks and hardcover calculations were reviewed on the basis that the combination will occur. Discussion - The existing garage on this property is fairly small and not easily accessible. The proposed 26x30' garage will have 2h stalls on the main level, with basement space for storage and additional storage within the 12/12 pitch roof. Because this garage exceeds 750 s.f. in footprint area, the normal 10' side and street setbacks are increased to 15' per the Accessory Structures Ordinance revisions adopted in 1989. This garage is proposed to have side-facing doors, therefore the only reason it needs to meet 15' setbacks from property lines is the footprint area just over the 7F0 s.f. limit. The proposed addition to the master bedroom area will meet all required setoacks, and squares off the house. Applicants note that this area is over existing hardcover, hence this addition in and of itself does not add to the overall hardcover increases. The proposed deck system on the lakeside of the house is generally in line with that of the neighboring residence to the west, but extends much nearer the lake than the easterly neighbor. The house to the east is located so near the road as to be non-conforming in location, hence it tends to be not in line with other residences in the neighborhood. Because the proposed decks are nearly 60' from the side lot line, their impact on the views of the neighboring house to the east should be insignificant. Note also that the proposed decks will be approximately 80' from the normal shoreline, hence they require no variance to the 75' lake setback standard. In conjunction with the proposed garage, staff anticipates that approximately 328 s.f. of additional hardcover will be needed in driveway areas to make the new garage functional. i
