Pertinent Code Sections: 1. Section 10.22, Subd. 2 and Section 10.56, Subd. 16(C)(1): Structure within 75’: Structures shall be set back a minimum of 75’ from the OHWLof Lake Minnetonka (929.4 ’). (Request: To allow expansion of the principal structure located 25.1 ’ from the OHWL of Lake Minnetonka where 75’ is required). 2. Section 10.25, Subd. 6 (B): Yard Requirements: The following minimum requirements shall be observed: side yard 10 feet. (Request: To allow a side yard setback of 6.6’ where 10 ’ is required). 3.Section 10.22, Subd. 1 (B) and Section 10.56, Subd. 16 (C)(6): Average Lakeshore Setback: The average lakeshore setback line shall be a straight line connecting the most lakeward protrusions of the residence buildings on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lots. (Request: To allow a 48.7 ’ encroachment into the average lakeshore setback). Discussion: 1. Structure setback from the OtlWL The existing structure is located 17.2 ’ (at the second story deck) from the OHWL of Lake Minnetonka w here 75’ is required. However, the proposed roof expansion and reconstruction is located 25.1 ’ (at the house footprint) from the OHWL. The structure is not proposed to be closer to the OHWL than it exists. However, the proposed overhangs do encroach into an already substandard setback. This encroachment changes the proposed roof expansion from 25.1' to 23.6’ from the OHWL. 2. Structure setback from the side yard The existing structure is located 6.6’ from the side lot line to the east where 10 ’ is required. The structure is not proposed to be located closer to the side lot line than it exists. The applicant proposes I ’ overhangs along this side of the new roof. With the 1 ’ o\ erhang encroachment, the proposed roof expansion will be located 5.6’ from the side lot line (a difference of approximately 2"). 1 he proposed overhangs are not considered to be part of structure or hardcover. 3. Average lakeshore setback There is one home located to the southeast of the property (1384 Baldur Park Road) and vacant lots to the west. Since there is only one adjacent neighboring lakeshore home, the average lakeshore setback is calculated according to the setback of the adjacent residence from the OHWL. 'I he house to the east is located 65.9’ from the OHWL. The applicants’ structure (including second story deck) encroaches 48.7 ’ into the average lakeshore setback.
