Applicant notes that cutting back the structure 3' to meet <br />the setback would interfere with existing windows and doorways in the back <br />vail of the house. <br />Hardcover on the property is less than 10% and is not an issue. This <br />is not lakeshore property and no neighboring lake views will be affected. <br />The proposed porch and decks would not appear to cause a significant <br />reduction in open space in the neighborhood. <br />Staff Recomnendation - <br />Staff recommends approval of the 3' side street setback variance <br />request as submitted based on the findings as follows: <br />1. Moving the wall of the porch to meet the 35* required setback <br />would place the wall in conflict with existing door and window <br />locations. <br />2. The porch and deck as proposed will have no significant visual <br />effect on the character of the neighborhood.
