■04-3010 Aug»t 16. 2004 Page 2 of 3 reduce hardcover. The applicant has reduced the size of the garage, however increased the siz. of the house footprint slightly. The applicant has also explored moving the house to\s^ds the road but doesn ’t want to give up any lake views. Lastly, the applicant has tried a smaller anached garage as well as a detached garage in an effort to reduce driveway hardcover. All the exercises have led the applicant to the anached revised plan The applicant is still proposing to rcmo\e the shed located at the lake and the detached garage located at the road, as well as retaining walls within 75 ’ of the lake. The new plan consists of 3Wo hardco\cr when 33% was previously proposed and 25% is normally allowed. The applicant is also still requesting a conditional use permit in order to re-grade the lake yard. The City Engineer haj reviewed this plan briefly, howexer has not provided any wnnen commento at the time this report was drafted. His verbal comments relate spccific.illy to whether or not the slope is indeed in need of restoration He will conduct a site visit and provide WTitten comments, although he maintains that only the portion of the slope between the 934 elevation and the 944 elevation are in need of slight repair and the repair can be done without the need for retaining walls The applicant should explore replanting the area between the 934 elevation and 944 elcxations with prairie grasses and or wildflowcrs as those plant types provide much deeper root systems than turf grasses The Planning Commission should come to a consensus on whether extensive grading within the lake yard should be permitted given the City Engineer’s preliminary comments, the conditional use pci.nit standards outlined in the previous staff report, and historically what residents have been approved to do within their lake yard. lot .\NALYSIS WORSHEET (changti from theprevioui plan havt bten bohled and Italiclied) 1 LR-IC Lot Area Lot Width Required 21.780 s.f.
