The exterior changes are located within the side yard setback (30’) and within the required 75’ setback from Tanager Lake. Any impact on the neighborhood is the added mass within the setbacks.

After the public hearing, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the variances as proposed. The Planning Commission report provides the full analysis of the project. Planning Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval; a draft approval resolution has been provided for Council’s consideration.
