I'' <br />i; ■ <br />n <br />'■iI < <br />f ■ y <br />1 <br />house would be adverse to the intent and purposes of the Zoning <br />Code# would result in diminution in value to the surrounding <br />property. Plans for the house show construction of adequate <br />garage and storage space attached to the home. There would <br />be too much hardcover if the carriage house remained and the <br />proposed house was constructed. <br />17. There is presently in existence a purported walk­ <br />way and lake access easement that runs over the land and pur­ <br />portedly allows the easement holders to construct a dock on <br />the lot. <br />18. There is presently in existence one dock used <br />jointly by the two easement holders. <br />19. Prior to purchasing the lot# Mr. Rhode discussed <br />the "buildability" of the same with Hank Muhich# Zoning <br />Administrator. <br />20. Mr. Rhode was told that lot had in the past been <br />determined to be "buildable* by prior council action. <br />21. The fact that Mr. Rhode's "lot of record" exists <br />isolated from other undeveloped land makes it unique and <br />different from the conditions which apply to other land in <br />the area. <br />a. The substandard width and area are peculiar to the <br />lot and do not apply generally to other land in the <br />area. <br />b. The lot cannot be combined with undeveloped land. <br />(1) Mr. Rhode's predecessor in title# Mr. Fred <br />Rogers# never had record legal title to the lot at the <br />same time he had record legal title to any adjacent <br />lot. <br />(2) Mr. Rhode's predecessor in title never had <br />an equitable interest in the lot at the same time <br />he had an equitable interest in any adjacent lot. <br />(3) It was never possible for Mr. Fred Rogers <br />to have combined what is now Jack Rhode's lot with <br />what is now Jason C. Becker's lot. By the time <br />Rogers acquired an interest in Rhode's lot# he had <br />given up his interest in Becker's lot. <br />22. It is necessary that Mr. Rhode be granted a vari­ <br />ance as to lot size and width to preserve his enjoyment of a <br />substantial property right# to-wit: the right to build a <br />single family dwelling on an LR-IB lot for which he paid <br />84S#000.
