Neighborhood History: The applicant has obtained a copy of the survey, hardcover calculations and <br />resolution for the adjacent property - 1770 Shady wood Road. In October 1997, the Planning <br />Commission and City Council approved variances for an after the fact deck. Sec attached Resolution <br />#3974 as Exhibit K. <br />Brief Summary of proposed changes: <br />The 0-75’ setback area: The existing deck has 65 s.f. located in the setback area. <br />The deck has been redesigned to eliminate it from protruding into the setback area, <br />lowering the hardcover calculations in this setback area to 0%. No variance needed. <br />The 75-250' setback area: The existing deck has 220 s.f in the 75-250’ setback <br />area, the first proposal was for 291 s.f to be located in this area. The redesigned <br />deck proposes 235 s.f to be located in this setback area. <br />In the combined setback areas, total deck square footage is reduced from 285 s.f <br />existing to 220 s.f proposed. <br />The side cntr>' as exists is 37 s.f The first proposal was for 165 s.f The redesigned <br />side entrv is for 80 s.f <br />The applicant's are still proposing to remove 95 s.f of driveway and 128 s.f. of <br />sidewalk.. <br />The deck, side entr>'. reduction of driveway and sidewalk reduce the hardcover <br />calculations for this area from 3,204 s.f (43.7%) existing to 3.039 s.f (41.4%) <br />proposed. A variance is still required for hardeover within the 75-250’ setback <br />area. <br />•Structural Coverage; The existing structural coverage for the lot is 1.977 s.f or <br />15.7%. The new proposal beeause of the side entry being larger than what exists is <br />2,020 s.f or 15.9%. The applicant understands that the zoning code only allows 15% <br />structural coverage, but wishes to keep the side entry at 8' x 10' (80 s.f instead of the <br />165 s.f first proposed), fhe first staff report has larger numbers for structural <br />coverage because the deck was included in this calculation, however, it has been <br />determined that the deck is under 6' in height and is not included in .structural <br />coverage calculations. A variance is still needed for structural coverage. <br />This application requires the following variances; <br />Section 10.03, Subd. 14(C): Lot coverage: In all zoning district, for all lots of 0-1.99 acre in total <br />area, the total combined footprint areas of all principal and acccssoiy structures shall notexceed 15% <br />of the lot area. To permit a variance to allow lot coverage to be 2.020 s.f (15.9”/o) where 1.977 s.f <br />(15.7%) exists and 1.894.1 (15%) is allowed. <br />^255iS Anthony/Linda Patterson <br />1780 Shadywoud Road <br />Variances <br />2/N/00 <br />Pa^^e 2
