The addition includes a two-level garage at rear or east side of residence. Applicant wishes to extend addition along existing front and side of residence requiring setback variances. Review Exhibit D. applicant ’s hardship statement. The property is now served with sewer connected in May of 1993. Applicant prov ided City with an easement to extend sewer along north lot line of propert>' to serve properties to the east of residence. The width of the easement is not shown on the updated survey nor the exact location of the culvert that drains beneath the driveway at the north side ot property and eventually to pond to northwest. The neighbor to the immediate north has voiced concern with additional drainage from new construction increasing runoff and storage of drainage on his already severely limited property. Staff has completed a site inspection with the City Engineer. He notes that the majority of drainage from this structure can be directed to the culvert at the southwest comer of property that drains under Leaf along the north side of Bayside and eventually to Stubbs Bay. All downspouts will be directed to the southwest drainage ditch. Review' Exhibit F. Note that the driveway shall be raised and allow drainage to flow to the south. It is not clear from the preliminary’ information received whether applicant plans to install a new foundation. If this is the case, this would be the opportunity to relocate house at a conforming setback. If there is to be further expansion of the second floor above the existing residence, the City will require confimiation that the existing foundation can support the expansion. Applicant should provide Planning Commission with more detail as to the amount of filling and cutting to be done. Review Exhibit E, the north elevation shows cutting into the bank at the northeast comer providing a lower access door to the north yard from the lower level garage. To date we have not received to-scale drawings of elevations so it is difficult to confimi the exact height of the addition but it does not appear that there will be problems with the height.
