Zoning File #1465 <br />October 10, 1989 <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />The fence would appear to be relatively open in <br />this location, since West Ferndale Road is not considered a major <br />thoroughfare nor is it a MSA funded road, maximum allowable fence <br />height without a variance would be 3.5*. <br />Staff Itei; o—endation - <br />Given the history of hardcover increases on this property, <br />the current request would seem to be a significant increase with <br />little in the way of hardship offered by the <br />of the request. Also, given the history of <br />the current remodeling over the last two years, a la^k of good <br />initial site planning seems apparent. <br />Planning Commission should address the <br />issues in any recommendation for approval or denial of <br />variances requested: <br />1. Should the circular dock be allowed to be reconstructed, <br />leaving a total of 2.«>% hardcover in the 0-75' zone? <br />2. Should a fence height variance be granted to allow the <br />fence as proposed? <br />3. What degree of hardcover variance is appropriate for the <br />d’-iveway area? Should the circular driveway be allowed? If <br />not, would Planning Commission <br />previously existed to be retained, including the back up <br />apron? <br />4. If the pre-existing driveway layout is retained, <br />hardcover percentage will increase above appr^'vod <br />in 1988. Per Exhibit H-e, hardcover excluding sidewalks <br />could be as follows: <br />House, deck (items A thru M) <br />Less portion in 0-75' zone <br />Pre-existing driveway (per Exh. H-b) <br />75-250' Net <br />5,461 s.f. <br />487 s.f. <br />1,004 s.f. <br />5,978 s.f. - 37.7% <br />5. How much additional hardcover <br />sidewalks (410 s.f. or 2.6% is snown on Exhibit H-c}? <br />I .
