The applicant, who was out of town, was represented by his son-in-law Mabusth said that the appbeation was before the Planning Commission in November and required an updated surv ey of the shoreline The proposed reconstruction of the 14x26 deck would result in 40 s.f of additional hardcover located in the 0-75' zone and the entire deck is located in front of the av erage lakeshore setback line. The Planning Commission had approved the application in November awaiting updated survey showing that the deck was not in the 0-75' zone Mrs Linle had given her approval over the phone lor the reshaping of the deck to eliminate the deck portion in the 0-75' zone. Their representative at this meeting asked that the deck remain as proposed sitting on the original footprint. The trees in front of the deck would remain Nolan said it would be out of character to approve any structure in the 0-75' zone. He asked the representative if the applicant would consider removing brick hardcover that extended beyond the dimensions of the deck above the patio to reduce hardcover to offset the reconstruction of the deck The representative said this would be acceptable. Nolan moved. Smith seconded, to approve application #1979 for replacement of the 14x26' deck as previously existed with the removal of hardcover extending beyond the deck dimensions in the patio area. Ayes 7, Nays 0. (#4) #1999 DAVID AND VICKI VICKERMAN, 2475 DUNWOODY AVENUE - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 8:09-8:22 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Applicants, Mr. and Mrs. Vickerman, were present. Mabusth reported that the application would involve the removal of a 16x24' boathouse and replaced with a 12x15' deck and access stairs leading down steep bank to the lake. The problem with the structure is that it would be 10' above the lake and 9' from the shoreline. The code allows for a 8x4' landing with access stairs. The applicant reported that due to the steepness of the lot, there is no where to do anything to enjoy the lake without being able to walk out onto a deck. This would be the only access to the lake and use of the lakeshore itself Mrs. Vickerman asked if a wood deck coi ld be installed where the boathouse is now located.
