This addition is outside the 0-75' zone and was granted a building permit <br />in July. However, applicants also propose to construct a second stoiy' deck above the existing <br />one story screen porch which encroaches 12' into the 0-75' setback where no construction is <br />normally allowed. This second story deck involves changing the roof pitch of the porch to <br />essentially flat, and placement of a deck and railing which would functionally serve the second <br />story. <br />Also encroaching the 0-75' zone is an existing 12' x 16' deck approximately 1.5' above the <br />ground. The plans indicate there will be no changes to this open grade level deck. <br />Applicants request a lakeshore setback and an average lakeshore setback variance to allow <br />constmetion of the proposed deck addition.
