Olson, 3640 Bayside Road - <br />Variance - Public Hearing <br />Zoning District - LR-IA, 2-acre <br />implication - Side setback variance to construct a room addition <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - Application <br />Exhibit B - Plat Map <br />Exhibit C - Property Owners List <br />Exhibit D — Survey <br />Exhibit E - Topography and Layout of Nearby Lots <br />Exhibit P - Hardcover Calculations <br />Exhibit G - Septic Layout <br />Pertinent Facts: <br />Left Side Setback: Required <br />Proposed <br />Variance <br />Lot Size: 2.0 Acres <br />30' <br />19.9' <br />10.1' or 34% <br />Discussion: <br />The applicants are requesting a side setback variance in <br />order to construct an addition to their existing home. They note <br />that steep grades uphill and downhill from the house, the <br />location of existing trees, drainage, and well location are <br />factors that present hardships resulting in the location of the <br />proposed addition. <br />The addition is for a new kitchen. Note that applicants <br />l^®^^ll©d a new septic system in 1981 which is working well. <br />The impact of the variance on the only property affected, <br />immediately west of the house, appears to be very minimal. The <br />neighboring lot is vacant, and based on the topography the likely <br />placo for a house on it would be centrally located, hence no <br />sigrxficant encroachment on sunlight or air is apparent. Nor <br />would the addition have any effect on the development on the vacant lot. <br />This house was constructed many years prior to the olat of <br />"Riedel's Stubbs Bay Addition- in 1975; which created a <br />conforming setback but did not anticipate future additions. <br />V L.!kr.
