Zoning File #2104 January 9, 1996 Page 2 2. J. Section 10.22, Subd. 1: Average setback encroachment not allowed (existing encroachment = 50'; proposed encroachment — house. 13, deck. 19). Section 10.22, Subd. 2/Section 10.56, Subd. 16(L): Hardcover in 75-250’ zone limited to 25% (no variance proposed). Discussion Applicant proposes to construct a new residence to replace the existing residence The new house is proposed to meet the required 30 ’ side setbacks and the 75’ lakeshore setback. The new house will be set back approximately 35 ’ further inland than the existing house, and will include a 6’ deck also meeting the 75’ setback. The averace setback line defined in applicant’s previous application confirms the existing house encroaches approximately 50’ past the average setback. The new construction will encroach only 13 ’ with the new house, or 19 ’ total encroachment including the proposed 6’ deck. The neighboring house to the east will be only minimally impacted by this encroachment, and due to existing'^vegetation will likely have virtually none of its lake views reduced by the proposed construction. The proposed construction includes an attached garage and a redesigned driveway. This may require some fill on the site, and therefore due to past concerns about drainage and its impact on the neichboring property to the east, it would be appropriate for the applicant to provide a grading and drainage ^.ian for the City Engineer to review. Further, because no cutting of e.xistin«’ tirades in the 0-75’ zone will be allowed to accommodate the proposed basement windows "(existing foundation will have to be filled to match existing 0-75’ grades) the elevation of the basement floor is critical. That floor level must be at least 932.5 ’ to meet flood plain ordinance requirements, which would leave approximately 4-4.5’ of till above the basement floor on the lake side of the house, or even 5’ if the grade is established to dram away from the house. Again, these elevations and a complete grading plan are critical to the City s approval of this request. Hardcover Review In the previous application, stall defined that the 75-250’ zone contain 24,600 s.f., which would allow hardcover in the amount of 25'io or 6.150 s.f. The site plan as submitted and reviewed by staff in Exhibit G includes as follows:
