This application was reviewed as Zoning File 12-3551. <br /> 2. The Property is located in the LR-lA One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning <br /> District which requires a minimum lot area of 2.0 acres and a minimum lot width <br /> of 200'. <br /> 3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at public hearings held on <br /> April 16, 2012 and May 21, 2012 and recommended conditional approval of the <br /> variances and the conditional use permit based on the following findings: <br /> a. The Property contains 11,951 square feet (0.27 acre) in area and has 99 feet in <br /> width at the OHWL and at the 100-foot lake setback line, with a functional <br /> width perpendicular to the side lot lines of 60 feet. <br /> b. The Property contains an existing residence structure in poor repair as well as <br /> a detached garage with a failing foundation. The lot was platted in 1926 and <br /> the existing house is presumed to date from that time period. The properties <br /> on either side are developed with single family homes, so no additional land is <br /> available. The Applicant has the right to rebuild `in kind', but wishes to do a <br /> total rebuild in a different shape, size and location, hence the need for lot area <br /> and width variances. <br /> c. The existing home is 37' from the street lot line, with its main floor <br /> approximately 14 feet lower than street level. The existing one-stall detached <br /> garage encroaches into the platted right-of-way by 1.6 feet. The proposed <br /> Page 2 of 8 <br />
