TO:Dick Picnson, City Administrator FROM: DATB: SUBJECT: Hank Muliich, Zoninn Administrator #161 August 12, 1976 Frank Slawson - 3580 North Shore Drive Variance - Lot Area 5 Width to Add to Ibusc on Existing Non-Conforming Lot and Lakeshore Setback Kim or Eileen Ha»fkinson are the oivners of the property. A though the property is in a sewered area, the sewer has never been connected. I don’t know if the house was ever used as a year-round residence as it appears to be somevdiat small for that (696 sq. ft.). Although this district is zoned 1/2 acre, this parcel and lots 6 and 8 on either side of it are extremely small. In fact, tlie area of the larger portion of the subject lot is only 7,550 sq. ft. in area (about 1/6 acre). This lot is 50’ wide itfMrather than the 100' required. The existing dwelling is only about 12' from the existing neighbor's home to the southwest. If the proposed addition is approved, tliis setback \\rould also be only about 12' from tlie existing house to the northeast. Part of the existing house lies xnthin the 75’ lakeshore setback requirement. Part of the newly proposed addition would also lie witliin the 75' setback require ment. I believe an addition like this would result in extremely dense conditions. >fr. Slawson is making tliis proposal as I beliew he is interested in purdiasing the property providing he obtains Council approval of the variances requested. PLANNING OONNISSION MEETING - Septenfcer 7, 1976 Recomimded denial because the proposed addition would result in extremely dense conditions (12' between main structures on both sides of subject residence and part of the proposed addition would be built within the 75' lakeshore setback requireinent resulting in additional non-filtered stoim water runoff into Lake Minnetonka. COUNCIL MEETING - September 13, 1976 Denied variance but suggested revised proposal could be submitted for recons ider:?.Lte,
