We have a long, narrow lot that runs from Casco Point Road <br />to Lake Minnetonka. Our pie shaped lot is located just south of where <br />Dunwoody Avenue comes into Casco Point Road, and where Casco Point turns <br />south. <br />Our plan, developed with our builder, Jeff Danberry of The Danberry Company, <br />will not extend the house beyond its current dimensions, but rather, will replace <br />an existing three season porch and a patio covered with plastic underlayment <br />and rock, both of which are already calculated in our hardcover analysis. These <br />two areas, together measuring 19 x 28 feet, will become a master bedroom suite <br />which will provide additional living space, and storage space. In addition, we <br />will add a family room on a second level, above two existing bedrooms. <br />We do not believe that our project raises any issues regarding the location of <br />our house on the lot - we do not move any closer to the side lot lines than the <br />existing house. To the best of our knowledge, we do not have any side setback <br />issues, nor do we move any closer to the lakeshore. <br />The design of the project does not negatively affect drainage for our property, or <br />that of our adjoining neighbors, nor does it impact our neighbors’ views of the <br />lake. <br />In conclusion, the design of this project most efficiently uses existing hardcover <br />setbacks. <br />Bruce J.
