While <br />applicants would likely agree to resolution language that <br />prohibits enclosure of this portico/porch, its intent and <br />function is still to be as structural detail in the 0-75’ zone. <br />The additional deck behind the garage and the room <br />expansions eastward from the existing house both yield an <br />increase in 75-250’ hardcover. Applicants have stated to staff <br />that if the attached garage addition is approved, they could <br />remove the existing detached garage and gravel parking area, <br />yielding a significant hardcover decrease in the 250-500’ zone. <br />The new plan exhibits no change in the previously proposed <br />driveway or sidewalk layout. <br />In reviewing this application, Planning Commission may wish <br />to consider the following issues; <br />- Is the portico with roof and pillars in the 0-75’ zone <br />necessary for aesthetic purposes, and does that justify <br />granting of a variance? <br />- Can some of the deck area in the 0-75’ zone be eliminated? <br />- How necessary is the 75-250’ deck behind the garage? <br />- Is there any hardship *o grant a 2* side setback variance <br />for that deck? <br />- Is the removal of the detached garage and parking areas a <br />reasonable tradeoff foir the hardcover additions in the 250- <br />500’ zone? <br />Staff Recoanendation - <br />If Planning Commi- %.... finds that sufficient justification <br />exists to recommend app"r< v^» of Plan C, then a recommendation for <br />approval would be app:v.priate. If Planning Commission so <br />desires, approval could be conditioned on elimination of specific <br />aspects of Plan C. If Planning Commission feels that Plan C is <br />not appropriate and can ’t be easily revised to meet Planning <br />Commission ’s goals for this property, then a recommendation for <br />denial or a tabling of the application would be in order. It the <br />request is tabled. Planning Commission should give applicants <br />direction for revising iht'r plan. <br />■***
