Re^pea fcNT Council Actxm o <br />Ps^ 2 of 4 <br />November 29, 1995 <br />Zoning File #2084 Thomas R. McCune, 1473 Bay Ridge Road <br />The proposed new sunroom will be over the existing wood deck, which is 2T from the ^uth <br />side lot lii» where a 30* setback is nonnally required. A ptwtion of the c.xisting deck wiU be <br />removed, which will assist in minimizing the proposed increase in hardcover in the 75-250 <br />zone. <br />Hardcover in the 75-250 ’ zone is proposed to increase from 23.9% to 26.7®/o, where 25% is <br />normally allowed. Applicant noted that the garage addition is located where it minimizes the <br />amount of driveway in the 75-250* zone. <br />planning Commission Recommendation <br />Planning Commission reviewed this application at their November 20 meeting and on a vote <br />of 5 to 0 recommended approval, subject to applicant not proceeding with the garage wing <br />Edition until/unless municipal sewer becomes available to the property, based on the following <br />findings; <br />The proposed side setback of 10' for the garage and 27 for the sunroom instead <br />of the required 30', is consistent with other development in the neighborhood. <br />b.The new ’ garage addition will result in the removal of the existing detached <br />garace which is located less than 3' from the south side lot line where current <br />standards for detached garage would require a 10' minimum setback, thereby <br />eliminating this non-conforming structure. <br />c.The proposed location of the garage/bedroomybath addition in the northerly halt <br />of the property' will minimize the amount of driveway hardcover in the 75-250 <br />zone. <br />The proposed sunroom is over an existing deck and therefore constitutes no new <br />hardcover in the 75-250 ’ zone. Further, the proposed sunroom does not encroach <br />on the average lakeshore setback, and its location 27 from the lot line will have <br />no impact on neighboring properties. <br />The increase in hardcover on the property from 23.9% to 26.7% is being <br />minimized by removal of a portion of the existing deck, as well as removal of <br />the detached garage and existing sidewalk. Hardcover in the 250-500' zone of <br />19.9% where 30% would be allowed also is a positive aspect of the proposal.
