The originally proposed hardcover variance percentage request was 57.9% or <br />4,442 s.f.. At your October meeting the applicant reduced the initial request to 38.9% or <br />2,981 s.f., this request was denied by the Planning Commission with a 5-2 vote. <br />The applicant has revised the plans to reflect a hardcover variance request of 36.8% <br />within the 75’-250’ setback, this most recent revision shows a reduction of 157 s.f from <br />the previous reduction. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Planning Staff recommends approval of the average lakeshore setback variance. <br />Planning Commission should determine whether or not there is a hardship inherent to the <br />land to justify granting a hardcover variance for 36.8% hardcover in the 75’-250’ setback <br />zone where 25% is normally allowed in conjunction with the redevelopment of the lot. <br />Additionally, staff recommends that any variance approval for this site should be <br />conditioned upon the Council approval of a restoration plan to remedy the vegetation <br />removals conducted on the property during the week of October 11***. <br />-~Tl"rTrTriTniiiiiiii J
