i! 0^.n. July 3, 1985 Ms. Mabusth Page A These proposed setbacks are based on the following reasons: - To move the pool as far out of the 75 foot lakeshore setback as possible and out of the 50 foot DNR setback. - To maintain a 10 foot or more setback adjacent to the house/ greenhouse for as much distance as possible. - The desire to have a pool of 21 feet In width which helps the safety concern of people, especially children, diving from the short side of the pool. Emergency access can be accomplished to the east, south and west of the pool easily and within the 13 foot setback on the north of the pool adjacent to the building entry/exit points. Again, the only restriction will be for a 16 foot wide area by the greenhouse. The pool can also act a convenient water reservoir for fire protection. In summary, the site, zoning regulations and construction requirements have offered limitations to site utilization. The required locations for the septic system necessitated moving the pool and created a hardship In finding an acceptable alternative location on this restricted site. These conditions of hardship Include steep topography, narrow area west of the house, existing vegetation and general unique character of the property In relationship to required zoning setbacks. The proposed pool use Is permitted within the LR-IA district. The proposal will not alter the character of the locality. The proposed compensations for hard surface cover to control water quality and runoff along with efforts to move the pool out of the lakeshore setback as much as possible and minimize the accessory structure setback variance, are made to keep with the spirit and Intent of the zoning code.
