(.1.31 acre) List of Exhibits: A Application B Survey C Site Plan D Hardcover Calculations E Drawings F Plat Map G Property OwTiers List H Photos of Property Pertinent Code Section: I. Section 10.22, Subdivision 1 (B): Average Lakeshore Setback: No principal or acccssoiy^ structure shall be closer to the lakeshore than the average distance from the shoreline of e.xisting residence buildings on adjacent lots. Variance Requested: To encroach 105 feet into the average lakeshore setback. Application Summarv-: The applicant has requested an average lakeshore setback variance to replace a portion of the e.xisting upper level lakeside deck (8* .\ 42’) and to construct a 2' x 10’ addition on the lake side of the residence. Average Lakeshore Setback: All of the residence and deck arc within the average lakeshore setback zone. The subject property is a point located on Forest Lake. The existing topography, the layout of the neighboring houses and existing vegetation screening all suggest that the proposed addition and replacement of deck will not be within the visibility of either neighboring property and will not encroach on any existing view of the lake. Hardcover: Although the hardcover in the 75-250’ setback zone is over the allowed 25%, the replacement of the existing deck and the 2’ x 10’ addition are over existing hardcover, therefore the improvements are not changing the amount of hardcover in the setback zone. #02-2809 RickKristinc Sterling 1300 Vine Place 7/3/2002 Page I
