Does reducing the hardcover allowance <br />have any significant effect upon reducing the profile or mass of a <br />structure? If you reduce hardcover allowance you encourage upward <br />expansion. Lot 4 with graduated lower elevations to the north and west <br />will provide negligible visual impact upon the northern property owners, <br />certainly no more than Lots 5 and 1? would along the westerly existing <br />rural residential development. The 70* of depth (review Exhibit A) of the <br />building pad will place greater restrictions on stiuctural planning. Staff <br />would strongly recommend no special restrictions for Lot 4. In staff's <br />opinion even at 60% or less hardcover allowance, there is negligible impact <br />on development as far as the visual aspect is concerned. <br />Hhat other controls may be more effective in dealing with structural <br />intensification? <br />Height. If the goal is to reduce visual impact of structures, a <br />height control should be considered. A recent recommended standard by the <br />DNR for all lakeshore property has been set at 25* in height. If height is <br />to be restricted than residential development along the horizontal plane <br />will be intensified and encouraged. Is this what is sought by lessening <br />visual impact? If a walk-out to the north is planned, the 25' height would <br />be measured from the lowest elevation at the walk-out side. This is <br />different from the existing Building & Zoning Code Standards that would <br />measure height from the entrance level (only if 50% of lower level is not <br />exposed). All other standards in the zoning code would be applicable in <br />determining height of structure (review Section 10.02, Definition 13). <br />Planning Commission may wish to consider other height elevations. For <br />staff, 25' would still allow 2-story structures with room for creative roof <br />designs. <br />No Accessory Structures. If we limit accessory structures, this might <br />encourage the expansion of the principal structure. This most certainly <br />will not be a neighborhood of detached garages and small barns, etc. The <br />most one would envision would be a maintenance structure, if even that. <br />I <br />' P A <br />p;s Si% <br />pmm <br />r 1 <br />"v;-.
