r.f I Date Application Received: 7-18-03 Date Application Considered as Complete: 7-18*03 60-Day Review Period Extension Received 1-21-04 to: 4-1-04 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Date: March 18.2004 ^ Item No.:1 Department Approval: Name: Michael P. Caffron Title: Planning Director Administrator Approval:Agenda Section: Zoning Item Description: #03-2928 Michael Mischke, 1972 Shadywood Road - Variances - Resolution Zoning District: Lot Area: LR-IC Single Family Lakeshore Residential, 1 /2-acre min. 0.16 acre (6,915 s.f.) List of Exhibits A - Resolution B - Notice of Planning Commission Action 3-18-04 C - Memo and Exhibits of 3-11-04 Application Summary: Applicant requests hardcover and setback variances to replace an existingl - stall garage with a new 2-stall detached garage; and hardcover and setback variances to construct a small deck on the lake side of the home. Applicant provided two site plan options for Planning Commission consideration, one for a side-load garage, the other end-load. For either option, lot .overage is proposed at 1490 s.f., just under the ISOO s.f. limit for this small lot. Planning Commission Recommendation: Planning Commission reviewed this on March 1 S, 2004. On a vote of S-2, Planning Commission voted to recommend Option A, the applicant’s preferred plan, with allowance for a 100 s. f. deck, with limitations, which results in a 0-75’ hardcover reduction fiom 31.5% to 26.3% and a 75-250' reduction from 69.5% to 57.3%. Staff Recommendation: Staff concurs with the recommendations of the Planning Commission Please review the memo and exhibits of March 11 . The applicant has attempted to minimize hardcover on this extremely small lot while allowing construction of a minimum-size 2-stall garage and at least two parking stalls within the property boundaries. Three-fourths of the lot is within the 0-75' zone due to the channel, one lot to tlie north. The proposed garage will be 5' from the north lot line to maximize the open ^ace along the south side of the lot, as was recomiiiended by Planning Commission last summer when this application was first presented. The minority voters ^parently were more in favor of Plan B; the difference is that Plan B has slightly less overall hardcover, but also less off-street parking viability. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Adopt or amend the attached resolution. 1
