10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment <br />of a substantial property right of the applicant. <br />Without the required variances, the applicant will be unable to locate a carport on the <br />property as pwssible locations are limited. <br />i 1.

The lot width is 47 at the required <br />setback and 30' at the lakeshore where 100' is required. <br />The location of the residence on the yard leaves the front (lakeside) yard as the only <br />viable area for a carport. It appears, however that at one time there was a one car tuck <br />under garage space that has been converted to living space. <br />Granting the side setback variance would not increase encroachment on the residence to <br />the north as there is currently a 13' separation between the structures. As proposed, this <br />would be approximately the minimum distance between proposed addition and the <br />neighboring residence. <br />Excluding the unplatted Crystal Bay Road, which crosses the lake side of the property, <br />hardcover is existing at 21.9% and proposed at 23% in the O' to 75' lakeshore setback. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends approval of the proposed 282 s.f. carport addition with a deck on top <br />located on the front side of the existing residence subject to a condition. <br />Staff recommends approval of side setback variance 6.2' to allow the addition to be <br />located 3.8' from the side lot line where 10' is required and 6.2' is existing. <br />*2307 ElUn Peterson <br />3355 Crystal Bay Road <br />Variancts <br />October 20, 1997 <br />Pages
