Because the applicant is <br />adding new hardcover and expanding the current envelope, a hardcover review and <br />compliance is required. The applicant currently has a hardcover level witliin the 75’-250’ <br />zone of 31% where 25% is normally required. Although a hardcover reduction of 2% <br />(29% total in 75’-250’ zone) is proposed, a hardcover variance remains necessary as 25% <br />is normally required. <br />The applicant has proposed to remove a boat enclosure within the 0-75’ zone reducing <br />hardcover in that zone by 286 s.f or 2% approximately to 1.7%. Upon a site inspection <br />on 2/15/05 staff discovered that the boat enclosure was already removed. Staff finds that <br />the material on the hardcover work.sheets labeled as “mesh” (comprising all 1.7% <br />hardcover) is landscape fabric which is considered hardcover. In order to keep the 230 <br />s.f of mesh, or landscape fabric, a hardcover variance for the 0-75’ zone is required. <br />Resolution number 2630 is attaclied to this report as Exhibit K. The prior owners had <br />received a hardcover variance to allow 27% in the 75’-250’ zone and an average <br />lakc.shorc .setback variance in May of 1989 in order to construct an addition to the home. <br />UI on page 3 of that resolution states “ The applicant is advised tliat no future hardcover <br />will be permitted on this property, however, any future proposal to increase hardcover on <br />the property might be approved only in conjunction with concurrent removals of existing <br />hardcover, resulting in no net increase of hardcover on the property.” <br />Average Eake.sliure Setback Variance <br />The existing house encroaches into the average lakeshore setback by appro.vimatcly 9 ’ to <br />25’ when measured east to west. This is due to the curve of the shoreline at this location <br />which is within a cove. Although the applicant isn’t requesting approval to encroach <br />further into the average lakeshore setback, a variance is still required as a half story will
