A variance to permit construction of a pool within the 75’ setback (and ahead of the average lakeshore setback) was denied. The council adopted Resolution No. 6519 which is attached as Exhibit C. The property owners worked with their designer and have brought back a request to amend the approval slightly. As shown in Exhibit B, they would like to eliminate the previously proposed larger additions shown in yellow on the west end of the home and construct a smaller addition (green) in its place. Another 125 square foot addition (also in green) is also proposed which fills in a jog in the lakeside of the home to accommodate a kitchen bump out. The pool has been relocated to be completely beyond all required setbacks. Planning Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the requested variances amending Resolution No. 6519. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Council should make a decision on the requested variances and direct staff to draft a resolution for adoption at the September 28th meeting. If the Council deems it appropriate to receive Planning Commission feedback on this request prior to final action, the item should be tabled to the Planning Commission’s September 21st agenda for their review.
