Applicant is hereby advised that hardcover within the <br />75-250' setback area of this property must be maintained at <br />final approved level of 3,759 square feet or 45% and that <br />any proposed improvements to this property that result in <br />increases in hardcover must be matched with equal or greater <br />removals of existing hardcover. <br />3. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the <br />property not with the applicant, but are permissive only and <br />must be exercised by application for a building permit <br />within one year of the date of Council approval, or this <br />variance will expire on that date (April 9, 1991). <br />Page 2 of 5
