Based on an average setback line defined between the houses at 3865 Bayside Road and 340 Westlake Street, the proposed additions do not require a variance for average setback.4. Per Municipal Zoning Code Section 12.30, Subdivision 4 (E), the existing on-site sewage treatment system on the property has been reviewed based on the expansion of this residence from a 1 bedroom status to a 2 bedroom status. The existing septic system is substandard in design and size, based on estimated soil conditions and minimum code requirements. However, that system is functioning adequately and no seepage or evidence of past seepage is visible. It is unlikely that this system could be upgraded totally within the requirements of the code based on probable soil conditions, but the system could conceivably be expanded by lengthening the existing drainfleld tr<*nches without encroaching into sanitary setbacks or lake setoacks. Such an expansion would require extending into the adjacent commonly owned Lot 4, and at such time that trench extension occurred, the northerly and southerly Iocs would have to be legally combined.5. The installation of municipal sewers has been studied in the Stubb's Bay area, including this property. As of the date of this resolution, no decision has been made as to whether the City will proceed with a municipal sewer project. The applicant has agreed to sign a waiver of his assessment appeal rights for the reasc^nable share of costs to be assessed to his property if tJiat sewer project is undertaken. 6. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and wel^" of the community.
