#02-2757 Terrance C. Johnson 1045 Linden Lane_________ Staff had briefly discussed the option of lifting the entire house and moving the house back on the property. The option of moving the entire house has major cost implications since the entire lower level and foundation would be required to be replaced. The house is currently located approximately 70’ from the takeshore. The deck proposed to be removed is 55’ from the lakeshore. The new attached deck and porch area would be approximately 60’ from the lakeshore. Review of Hardcover The previous approval allowed hardcover in the 0-75’ zone of 7.2%, where 8.9% exists. In the 75- 250’ zone, hardcover will increase from 22.1% to 40.5% where 25% is allowed. In the 250-500’ zone hardcover reduces from 76.1% to 23.3% where 30% is allowed. The balance of hardcover moving closer to the house is due to the driveway extension and construction of a garage anached to the house. Except for the driveway, all parking areas and the detached garage located near the street would be removed. In 1992 the Planning Commission voted 4 to 3 to recommend approval of the application. The primary concerns were the length of the driveway, potential drainage problems, steep driveway, and amount of hardcover in the 75-250’ zone. Council adopted Resolution No. 3186 by a vote of 3 to 1 approving variances. The resolution included language that allow s the City Engineer to monitor the drainage situation on the property.
