In 1974 at the time of the issuance of the building permit, the existing structure met all required setbacks of the zoning code. Resolution #3653 adopted by the City Council on December 11, 1995 granted a lot area and lot width variance to the subject property. The lot measures 100’ at proposed building site. If a new residence was installed meeting the required side setback, the structure would be limited to a 40' width. There are no excesses of hardcover within the other setback zones. Applicants have maintained hardcover at the existing level of hardcover proposed at 36.5%, existing 36.6%. The existing residence and accessor>- improvements within the lakeshore yard will not extend beyond the average lakeshore setback line. Structural coverage will not exceed the allowed 15% at 8,541 s.f. Structural coverage is proposed at 4,680 s.f or 8.2% 8, The property is served by municipal sewer. The Planning Commission was asked to consider if reductions in hardcover in the 250-500' setback area were needed. They were also asked if the east and west side setbacks should be increased to more closely conform to current code. The Planning Commission felt the application as proposed was acceptable finding the excesses of hardcover located some 250’ from the shoreline and side setbacks consistent with existing residence and structural improvements on adjacent properties in subdivision.
