A/p^Nq <br />^99$ <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />DATE: September 4,1996 <br />ITEM NO.: ^ <br />Department Approval: <br />Name Michael P. Gaffron <br />Title Asst. Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: <br />Zoning <br />Item Description: #2160 David & Jennifer Dotzenroth. 3225 Casco Circle - Variances - Resolution <br />Zoning District: LR-IC, Single Family Lakeshore Residential, sewered. 1/2 acre. <br />Application: Request for street setback and side setback variances to consuiict additions to existing <br />detached garage. <br />List of Exhibits <br />A - Resolution <br />B - Notice of Planning Commission Action <br />C - Revised Building Plans/Site Plan <br />D - Memo and Exhibits of 8/15/96 <br />Discussion <br />Please review the memo and exhibits of August 15th.
