Zoning File #1213 <br />October 15, 1987 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - <br />Exhibit B - <br />Exhibit C - <br />Exhibit D - <br />Exhibit E - <br />Exhibit F - <br />Exhibit G - <br />Exhibit H - <br />Application <br />Property Owners List <br />Plat Map <br />Addendum <br />Existing Hardcover/Improvements <br />Staff Sketch of Proposal <br />Original Proposal <br />Building Elevation <br />The applicant has begun major rehabilitation of the existing <br />residence. The garage addition on the east side will require a side <br />setback variance because the east side line abuts a public access. The <br />applicant notes the following hardships in his addendum.: <br />1. Property functions as both a corner and lakeshore lot - surrounded <br />by access ways on two sides and the lake on the south. <br />2. The house was located on property without cor'ideration for town <br />road - house could have been placed further west. <br />3. Interior design of house v;ould not permit locating house on west <br />side - in addition house on lot to w^ist is very close to shared lot <br />line. <br />4. Applicant reminds us that there is no hardcover within the 0-75 <br />feet setback area and there is only 9.2% within the 250-500' zone <br />where 30% is allowed. <br />5. If area of access easement, which appears to be a part of their <br />lot, was credited to property, the hardcover excess would be minimal. <br />Staff Comments - <br />1. Planning Commission may ask for additional hardcover removal <br />within the 75-250' setback area to offset the increase in hardcover. <br />Staff finds applicant's claim that hardcover is well under the allowed <br />30% within the 250-500' area valid. If you allow the increase of 5.1% <br />with this improvement, applicant should be advised that any future <br />improvements must be matched with equal amounts of removal of <br />hardcover. <br />2. The s:.de setback variance appears mute, one may argue not even <br />necessary since the code refers to a side yard adjacent to a street. <br />This limited access is not a street and will never be used as a public <br />roadway and yet must remain in the public domain because it provides <br />access to the lake. <br />Staff would recommend approval of the variances as proposed advising <br />applicant that future improvements within the 75-250' setback area may <br />require the removal of an equal amount of hardcover.
