Zoning File #1121 <br />March Ilf 1987 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Thirdly, the applicant's survey (which we received with the house <br />plotted on it 3-12-87) shows the proposed house, deck, and driveway <br />being about 27.9% hardcover, over the 25% limit. This survey does not <br />show any additional hardcover that would likely be taken up by <br />sidewalks to reach the anticipated front entryway. <br />Staff suggests that a reduction of the driveway to a minimal 25' <br />X 30' apron and 10' driveway width will leave enough allowable <br />hardcover to meet the 25% limits but it will be tight. <br />Planning Commission should ask applicant whether there are any <br />hardships to justify a hardcover variance; staff would recommend that <br />no variance be granted for hardcover given that this is essentially <br />new construction, and applicant should revise the driveway proposal <br />and design an entryway area so that total hardcover in the 75'-250* <br />zone does not exceed 25% (4375 s.f.). <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />1. Staff recommends that the lot width variance be granted. <br />2. Staff recommends that the average lakeshore setback variance <br />be approved as shown, finding no substantial encroachment on <br />neighboring views of the lake. <br />3. Staff recommends that applicant revise and refine his <br />driveway/sidewalks/entryway proposal so that 75'- 250' hardcover is no <br />greater than 4375 s.f.
