Review Exhibit C, applicants' engineer, Mr. Duffy, confirms the structure is in sound condition noting possible need to make remedial repairs to masonry foundation at some future time. The question to be answered by the Council is will the remedial repair of the masonry wall be allowed? The Building Inspector has confirmed that all water supplies to the boathouse have been closed off. The sink has been removed, the stove was stored in the exterior yard waiting to be removed, the refrigerator remained in the structure. Applicants have asked for special consideration to allow refrigerator to remain for family and guest use of the three season porch area. Primary use shall remain as an accessory use of the principal residence serving as a three season porch in the upper level and storage area in the lower level. Please review Exhibit E, the existing boatliouse is located 2'4" from the west side lot line. The principal portion of the structure is 9'4" from the 929.4', the deck is 4'. As directed by the Council, the staff has prepared an approval resolution granting the variances that would allow the unapproved recent structural repairs to the structure and because of the unique history of this structure, the structure shall remain but no structural repairs will be allowed. The resolution provides a forewarning to the applicants and future owners of the limitations on the use of the structure. There may be no intensification of use and that any repairs to the structure will require a building permit and approval by the City. The applicants have asked to be allowed to have the refrigerator remain in the three season porch. Council should provide direction. Please note that the new deck added to the lake side of the structure requires not only a lakeshore setback variance, but a side setback variance (10' side setback required from side lot line).
