City Code Section 78-1279 (6) <br />Average lakeshore setback.No principal or accessory building shall be <br />located closer to the Ordinary High Water Line (OHWL) than the average <br />distance from the shoreline of existing principal buildings on adjacent lots; <br />this does not apply to patios and other accessory structures less than 42 <br />inches above existing grade, and/or stairways, lifts, landings, lockboxes, <br />flagpoles and pump houses. Further, the average lakeshore setback shall <br />apply only to classified lakes and shall not apply to tributaries. The average <br />lakeshore setback line shall be a straight line connecting the most lakeward <br />protrusions of the principal buildings on the immediately adjacent lakeshore <br />lots. <br />a)In situations where improvement is proposed on a lot adjacent to a <br />vacant lot or right-of-way, the average lake shore setback shall be <br />equivalent to the setback of the most lakeward protrusion of the <br />principal building on the immediately adjacent improved lakeshore <br />lot. <br />b)In situations where the average lake shore setback line bisects the <br />principal building located on either adjacent lot, the next most <br />adjacent lake side point of the bisected principal building shall be <br />used for determining the average lakeshore setback. If the line <br />continues to bisect the principal building, the next most lakeside <br />point is to be used until the setback line does not bisect the <br />principal building on an adjacent lot. <br />5
