Zoning File #1768 <br />October 14, 1992 <br />Page 3 <br />alterations proposed encroach the lakeshore protected area. Note <br />hardcover facts ha-ve only dealt with the comparison of <br />improvements at the time of issuance of recent building permit <br />and Plan B improvements. <br />The driveway expansion proposed with Plan B proposes major <br />filling and grading activities resulting in the installation of <br />two tiers cf retaining walls. Note also retaining walls and <br />filling are proposed in the lakeshore yard. Any mature trees to <br />be removed as a result of building permit or Plan B improvements <br />have already been replanted on property. <br />There is a 50-75' wide grassed drainage corridor that runs <br />along the south side of the property. The area receives the <br />majority of runoff from the local watershed. The major filling <br />required for Plan B improvements will call for a separate <br />conditional use permit review as filling activities cannot be <br />connected to the building permit as protection of frost footings <br />or providing positive drainage from foundation. Please note <br />retaining wall hardcover was not included in the hardcover facts. <br />The City Engineer will be asked to review the filling and grading <br />plan submitted with the conditional use permit to ensure there is <br />no impact on the historic drainageway that serves the area. <br />Prior to applicant submitting a formal CUP application, it is <br />necessary for the Planning Commission to determine if variances <br />are to be granted. <br />Is.sues for Consideration <br />Applicant proposes a 5% increase in hardcover improvements <br />within the 75-250' setback area.
