Goetten said she would ask for reductions <br />in the plan. <br />Kelley said the plan does meet the 1 5% structural coverage and could be made even <br />larger. It was noted that the project could not become larger without additional <br />variances and the hardcover issue would also be a factor Mabusth commented that any <br />corrections made would be outside of the 75-250' setback Kelley asked and was <br />informed that the property is not lakeshore property. <br />Jabbour agreed that the project could be better by changing the setback or starting from <br />scratch but did not feel the issue could be forced. <br />The Council again questioned the vacation. Mabusth said if there is a question to the <br />document, she noted the vacation and lot have not yet been legally combined, and Staff <br />could reconfirm the \ alidity as a result of the combination <br />Callahan said if the vacation is the issue, then there is no need to send the application <br />back to the Planning Commission.
