WM-3010 <br />March 21,200S <br />Pace 3 of4 <br />(. <br />In past q)pIication8 the Planning Commission has made a distinction between an <br />addition/remodel verses a rd>uild based on how much of the existing structure would <br />remain, with 50% typically the threshold. When a project is deemed an addition/remodel, <br />the Planning Commission and Council expects no increases in hardcover, however when <br />tfie site is grossly over the allowed hardcover allowances, decreases in hardcover are <br />expected. When the project is deemed a rebuild, the applicant is expected to meet all <br />existing Zoning Ordinance requirements regardless of existing site characteristics. This <br />distinction between addition/remodel and rebuild must be made based on the new plans <br />submitted by the applicant. Staff will provide recommendation for both scenarios. <br />Revised Hardcover Calcvlations <br />Hardcover <br />Zone <br />Total Area in <br />Zone <br />Allowed <br />Hardcover <br />ExistlDg <br />Hardcover <br />Proposed <br />Hardcover <br />0-75 7,767 s.f.0s.f <br />(0%) <br />320 s.f. <br />(4%) <br />345 s.f. <br />(4.4%) <br />1“ <br />Proposal: <br />0 s.f (0%) <br />% <br />75-250 14,159 s.f. <br />' <br />•4>. <br />3,540 s.f. <br />(25%) <br />7,032 s.f. <br />(49%) <br />4,608 s.f. <br />(32.5%) <br />2"'* Proposal: <br />4,306 s.f. <br />(30%) <br />l“ Proposal: <br />4,676 s.f. <br />(32.86%) <br />Revised Structural Coverage <br />(Items in boU/iuUics rq>resent the current proposal) <br />Total Lot Area Total Stmctural Coverage <br />21,Si26s.f.

This gravel was <br />added without permits and not subject to any review process, as is the case for most <br />driveway hardcover in the City. If this gravel were taken out of the hardcover <br />calculations, the property would be conforming in the 75’-250’ zone at 24%. With the <br />proposed addition/ronodel, the applicant is requesting that this gravel area be tradable for <br />-------------I.HIL
