The second story room over the garage is necessary to provide a <br />useful second bedroom since the house currently'contains only one <br />*****^®®®» which is a hardship to the applicant's reasonable use <br />of the property, because it does not allow for additional family members or- temporary guests. <br />existing basement rooms are not useful as bedrooms because the <br />windows do not meet fire egress height standards. In order <br />to change these windows it would require structural changes to the <br />residetTce^ ^° * change in grades on the lakeshore side of the <br />7. The applicants request will result in a residence that is <br />approximately 200 s.f. smaller in area and has less hardcover than the <br />neighboring property to the north. <br />Page 2 of 6
