The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. The Applicants was present. Gaffron reported that the property in question was a 3./4 acre lot. the bulk of which is located in the 0-7.S' setback, with 17.600 s f in the 0-7.S’ setback and 11,000 s f in the 7.S- 250' setback The house on the property is small and mostly located within the 0-7.5’ setback. The single car garage encroaches into the right-of-way. Gaffron said the proposal to purchase the prope.'ty is conti.ngent on approval of the additions. An addition IS proposed to the » ^C4I , I -lakeside ofr*uA K t r A , but still partially in the 0-75’ setback. A second story is also planned. The garage will be remov ed and replaced by a 2-car attached garage. Gaffron informed the Planning Commission that the variances required for this proposal are for hardcover, side setback to the east, proposed at 18' where 30 ’ is required, and street setback. The attached garage requires a 50’ street setback and is proposed at 1'. Gaffron said Staff recommends a 10’ setback to the street lot line. The normal setback for a detached garage, when doors are to the side, is 10'. which Gaffron said should be strived for Gaffron reported that the average depth of the lot is such that there is no buildable envelope The evicting hou<se does not meet setbacks Any upward change.s results in visual im.nacts Gaffron said it should he noted that the height of the stnicture be limited to 2 stories. If this limit was not placed in the resolution, the structure could be built tc 1; 1/2 stories. .Ar.y m.ore than 2 stories would not fit the neighborhood and would be disproportionate from the street view. A letter from the neighbor to the east stated his opposition to allowing a side setback less than the 30' requirement. Gaffron said there could be ramifications to changing the garage to the other end of the house.
