Pertinent Code Sections: <br />Section 10.24. Subdivision 5 (B): Yard requirements 10’ side yard setback. <br />Section 10.22, Subdivision 2 and Section 10.56. Subdivision 16 (1.) (2): Allowed Hardcover. <br />Lot Area 75-250’ setback = 5.384 s.f. <br />Existing Hardcover * 2,822 s.f. (52.4%) <br />Proposed Hardcover = 2,942 s.f (54.6%) <br />Review of Hardcover: <br />The hardcover numbers noted above do not reflect the amount of non-conforming landscaping <br />plastic on the property, which is a change from the percentages as noted on the hardcover calculation <br />worksheets. <br />Also, note the two rock gardens located in the 75-250' setback aic only considered 5U*o hardcover <br />based on the rock gardens are not impervious as the rocks arc located over natural suiface. Rather <br />than calculate the individual area of each rock the 50’!'o figure was used to average the total hard <br />surface over each garden. <br />Issues for Discussion: <br />1. The property w as developed prior to current zoning standards. The house is cuirentl> located <br />as close as 7’ from the property line and gradually moves further from the property line as the <br />house gets further from the lake. The point where the new addition would join the existing <br />house is 8 ‘ from the property line. The overhang from the house would be located <br />approximately 5’ from the property line, where an overhang cannot be located closer than 8.5' <br />to a property line. <br />2. The addition increases overall hardcover on the property, however the total lot coverage b\ <br />stricture would be below the I5®b allow ed by Code. Does the size of the house, relalis e to <br />the size of the lot. allow for certain hardcover alterations over 25% to permit the properly to <br />maximize overall structure (14 6®b)7 <br />3. The addition will create 120 s.f more hardcover on the property than preexisting conditions. <br />Should an equal amount of hardcover be removed to compensate for the additional <br />hardcover? <br />Proposed lot coverage by structures is as follows: <br />House 1.418 s.f <br />Shed 85 s.f <br />Total 1,503 s.f/ 10,282 “14.6% <br />■0I-7MN lt> and Kcndjll N)prd <br />t )I6 Rnl fVxni Ro*i <br />2:. 2002 <br />ri«(2orj
