The proposal meets City setbaclc requirements. The <br />house was constructed in 1979 and is oddly shaped in order to fit <br />the narrow, triangular lot. Note that over half the lot is in <br />the 0-75' setback zone, leaving a relatively small proportion of <br />allowable hardcover. <br />The applicants are proposing to reduce the overall hardcover <br />by 50 s.f., dropping from 39.1% to 38.8%. Note on the site plan <br />the driveway and planter areas to be removed, and the driveway <br />and additions to be added. <br />The shape of the lot is obviously a hardship. The lot is <br />0.88 acres total, and is not typical of lots in the LR-lB <br />district, as it is wide and shallow rather than deep and narrow. <br />Staff would recommend the variance be granted as proposed. <br />If you feel that the hardcover should be reduced further, perhaps <br />the dog run, which comprises about 3% hardcover, could be re­ <br />moved. This area currently consists of loose rock over plastic. <br />II <br />1
