The applicants have indicated that due to an intenor staircase location to <br />access the T* story addition above the garage from the existing home, and to have <br />enough space to physically park a vehicle and gain access to the home, the location and <br />size of the proposed garage is necessary. <br />The hardcover variances in order to construct the new 998 s.f. addition are somewhat <br />minimized by the removals the applicants have proposed. However, the Planning <br />Commission should discuss the fact that (not including the nonconforming 0*75 <br />hardcover) the existing 75 ’-250* zone is conforming in hardcover at 24.6% while the <br />applicants are requesting a variance to allow 29.5% In this zone. Planning Staff feels that <br />the addition could be reduced slightly and additional hardcover removals should be <br />proposed so as not to exceed 25% within the 75 ’ - 250 ’ zone. In particulw, staff would <br />recommend that the existing detached garage is one item that could be eliminated. <br />lasuaa for CoasIdcnithNi <br />Are there any other issues or concerns with this aj^lication? <br />Staff Rccommeadathm <br />Planning Staff recommends approval of rear yard and average lakeshore setback <br />variances in order to construct an addition to the existing home, however recommends <br />denial of the hardcover variance request for the 75’-250 ’ zone for hardcover exceeding <br />25%. <br />f <br />.mm <br />i .X <br />J
