ON BEHALF OF MATT AND KAREN PARKS, 825 <br />FOREST ARMS LANE - VARIANCES - 8:20-8:45 P.M. <br />The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted, <br />The Applicants were present. <br />Van Zomeren explained the property is 1.26 acres and meets the lot size reqmrements for the LR-IB <br />zoning district. The application has two parts. First, the applicants are requesting approval to allow <br />a garage addition that was constructed in March 1998 to remain by granting vanances for bluff <br />setback and average lakeshore setback. The second part is to allow construction of a new 526 s.f. <br />lakeside deck where a smaller deck was previously located. Because a miscommumcation within <br />the building department occurred, the builder was given premature approval to construct the garage. <br />A 30' setback is required from the top of the bluff which limits where improvements can be made <br />currently and in the future on this property. Staff recommends an after-the-fact vanance be granted <br />for bluff setback and average lakeshore setback for the garage addition. <br />There were no comments from the public. <br />Smith stated the Planning Commission was in consensus with an after-the-fact variance for the <br />garage, <br />Van Zomeren estimated that the new deck comes out 12' further than the old deck. Lmdquist s a e <br />the new deck is approximately 28 ’xl4'. In reviewing the site elevations, Van Zomeren stated the <br />the old deck came out 2 ’ from the farthest lakeside wall. She was unable to find any records showmg <br />the exact dimensions of the old deck.
