(15 %) <br />Proposed: 1.883 s.f. (19.4%) <br />Hardcover Calculations: <br />When calculating hardcover percentages for the 75-250 ’ zone the area within the shared <br />driveway easement (490 s.f.) was taken out of the lot area so as not to either help or <br />hinder the hardcover percentages. This is because this portion of the shared drive does <br />not benefit the applicant. <br />W’hen calculating hardcover percentages for the 250-500 ’ zone the area within the shared <br />driveway easement was kept added into the lot area due to the fact that the applicant <br />benefits from this portion of the shared driveway. <br />Hardcover <br />Zone <br />75 - 250 <br />250 - 500 <br />Total Area in <br />Zone <br />3.200 s.f. <br />6,025 s.f <br />Allowed <br />Hardcover <br />800 s.f <br />(25%) <br />1,807.5 s.f <br />(30%) <br />Existing <br />Hardcover <br />1,618 s.f* <br />(50.5 %) <br />3,324 s.f * <br />(55 %) <br />Proposed <br />Hardcover <br />1,205 s.f <br />(37.6 %) <br />2,570 s.f <br />(42.7 %) <br />After exclusion of fabric or plastic-lined landscape beds <br />Hardcover Variance <br />The applicant is proposing to add the addition over existing hardcover with the exception <br />of 15 square feet. The dramatic decreases in hardcover amounts for the proposal are the <br />results of the applicant eliminating the drive access through the marina and utilizing the <br />existing shared drive. This includes a net decrease of approximately 413 square feet of <br />hardcover or 13% in the 75-250* zone. In the 250-500' zone there would be a decrease of <br />approximately 754 square feet or 12%. <br />Although Planning Department staff is encouraged by the proposed decreases in <br />hardco\ er and the existing drive through the marina being eliminated, the overall <br />proposal doesn't fit w ithin requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. <br />Structural Coverage Variance <br />The applicant is proposing a living space addition of approximately 525 square feet and a <br />deck of approximately 81 square feet. This results in an increase of structural coverage <br />of 606 square feet bringing the current structural coverage percentage (14.9%) over the <br />allowable amounts to 19.4%. <br />Side Setback Variance <br />The applicant is proposing a second story deck, approximately 81 square feet in size <br />connecting the existing house to the proposed addition.
