Zoning File #2011 April 11, 1995 Page 2 Description of Request In the later pan of 1993, the City granted a hardcover variance and height variance for a residence to be constructed on the undeveloped property. The height variance involved a separate section or addition of the house that contained three stories. The current application involves a walkout desi£”i. Based on the height definition variance. Section 10.02, Definition 13, vertical height is determined at existing elevations not final or proposed elevation. Refer to Exhibit L, the northeast elevation and the northwest elevation. The code asks that a comparison be made between the highest existing elevation (943 at garage level) and the adjusted elevation of the basement floor (934+ 10’ = 944). Vertical height is measured from the lowest of the two elevations. Top or highest point is measured to the mean distance between highest point of the pitched roof and the ceiling joist, refer to the northwest elevation. The legal height is 35’ + . Refer to the southeast or lakeside elevation, the peak height of the structure from the lakeside is approximately 47 ’. As in the earlier variance application, the design and shape of the house results from the unique shaped building envelope and need to conserve horizontal hardcover improvement. The property is surrounded by lakeshore on the three sides. Review Exhibits E and F, in the earlier review the total lot area was found to be 55,500 s.f. The current application shows a total lot area of 62,660 s.f. with an increase in the 75-250 ’ setback area at 19,210 s.f. (original was 13,700). Staff called the surveyor to question 7,000+ s.f. of additional area. The surveyor advised that the same field crew shot the elevations in both 1992 and 1994. The area is flat and they shot more elevations resulting in the redefined shoreline at 929.4. Staff has asked for the field information from the surveyor to reconfirm findings. The applicants’ consultant proposes a drainfield to maintain runoff from roof of structure to offset the 4.2% excess of hardcover. Review Exhibit L, specifically the "Sections", note that all outdoor use areas have been stacked to conserve on hardcover by placing veranda immediately over grade level patio and topping veranda with a deck at third lakeside level. The property has not been assessed for sewer. Review Exhibits M and N, the sewer is approximately 120’ away from property boundary. It will be the applicants’ responsibility to extend sewer to the property. Sewer connection charge will consist of the following charges: Plant charge 5 225.00 Unit fee for 1970 LS-1 project 4,263.00 Lift station 10 by-pass charge 2,269.00 Front footage charge $26.25 per front ft. (190’ x $26.25) 4,987,5 0 Total fee Service availability charge $11,744.50 $ 850.00
