It was noted for the record that the Planning Commission was not concerned <br />with the stairway to the lake but would Uke to see the Citv work with the aoDlicant in <br />meeting size reo,uirements <br />(#5) #2135 PAUL AND SUE HEDLUND, 1575 LONG L.AKE BLVD. - <br />VARLANCES - PUBLIC HEARLNG 8:28-9:12 P.M. <br />The .Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The .Applica.nts was present. <br />Gaftron reported that the property in question was a 3/4 acre lot. the bulk of which is <br />located in the 0-7.5’ setback, with 17,600 .s f in the 0-7.5' sefhack and 11,000 s f in the 75- <br />250’ setback The house on the property' is small and mostly located within the 0-75’ <br />setback. The single car garage e.ncroaches into the right-of-way. Gaffron said the <br />proposal to purchase the property is contingent on approval of the additions. .A ji addition <br />is proposed to the rear, non-lakeside of the house, but still partially in the 0-75' setback. A <br />second story is also planned. The garage w'ill be removed and replaced by a 2-car <br />attached garage. <br />Gaftron informed the Planning Commission that the variances required for this proposal <br />are for hardcover, side setback to the east, proposed at 18’ where 30' is required, and <br />street setback. The attached garage requires a 30' street setback and is proposed at 1'. <br />Gaftron said Staft' recom.mends a 10' setback to the street lot line. The norma! setback for <br />a detached garage, when doors are to the side, is 10’. which Gaffron said should be strived <br />for. <br />Gaffron reported that the average depth of the lot is such that there is no buildable <br />envelope The evi.sting house does not meet setback*; Any upward changes re.sults in <br />visual impacts Gaffron said it should be noted that the height of the staicture be limited <br />to 2 stories. If this limit was not placed in the resolution, the structure could be built to 2- <br />I./2 stories. Any m-o.^’e than 2 stories would not fit the neighborhood and would be <br />disproportionate from the street view'. A letter from the neighbor to the east stated his <br />opposition to allowing a side setback less than the 30’ requirement. Gaffron said there <br />could be ramifications to changing the garage to the other end of the house. <br />10
