Zoning File #1382 <br />February 16» 1989 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />5. Technically, this project also requires an average lakeshore <br />setback variance. However, there are no visible residence buildings <br />on the Camp Teko property to the immediate north, and the residence to <br />the south is more then 200* »way. Neither neighboring property will <br />lose any existing lake viewu oecause of this project. <br />Discttsaion <br />Please review the statement of request and hardship submitted by the <br />applicant. Obviously, this residence has some unique features and history, <br />and may well be considered architecturally significant. <br />Since it would be inconsistent for the City to grant variances to <br />increase the percentage of hardcover in the 0-75* zone, the question <br />remains, which areas of hardcover could reasonably be removed to result in <br />at least no net harcover increase in the 0-75* zone, or perhaps even an <br />overall decrease in the 0-75* zone? Referring to the staff hardcover <br />review, the deck near the lake is long and narrow, comprising nearly 900 <br />square feet in area. That deck has two accesses, both via a stairway and a <br />blacktop path that averages 5* in width. Removal of the black*:op path and <br />reverting it to natural vegetation would certainly accomplish an overall <br />alight decrease in hardcover, at the expense of a gradually sloped paved <br />walking pathway. Perhaps the applicants can suggest other hardcover that <br />could be removed in the 0-75* zone if the pathway is not removed. <br />Note that the residence has no attached garage, only a carport. There <br />is a detached storage building that apparently can function as a garage. <br />Options For Planning Commission Action <br />Planning Commission has the following options: <br />1. Recommend approval based on the hardships noted above and in <br />applicant*s letter of request. If approval is recommended. Planning <br />Commission should address the following concerns and conditions: <br />a. How much hardcover must be removed, if any, from the 0-75* <br />zone, and which items of hardcover should be removed. <br />b. Recommend that applicant provide a drainage plan for review <br />by the City Staff prior to review of this application by the City <br />Council. <br />2. Planning Commission may wish to recommend only a partial <br />approval, perhaps allowing the addition but disallowing the proposed <br />terrace hardcover. <br />3. Recommend denial, making findings that support denial. <br />4. Table for additional info mation. If this action is taken, <br />please give applicant direction as to what additional information is <br />required. <br />5. Othe r.
