This application was reviewed as Zoning File#04-2995. <br /> 2. The property is located in the LR-lA Lakeshore Residential Zoning District,which <br /> requires minimum lot area of 2.0 acres and minimum lot width of 200'. <br /> 3. The property contains approximately 1.77 acres of drybuildable land and 1.31 acres of <br /> wetland. The wetland has not been delineated due to winter weather conditions,but its <br /> boundary has been estimated based on topography of the site. A portion of the existing <br /> driveway serving the property encroaches less than 26'from the wetland,and is proposed <br /> to continue in use,although a majority of the pre-existing driveway will be relocated to <br /> eliminate wetland setback encroachment. <br /> Page 1 of 6 <br />
