Motion, Ayes=S, Nays=0, Motion <br />passed. <br />#1452 HALTER PEMBERTON <br />1720 SHADYWOOD ROAD <br />VARIANCE <br />Mr. PzxTberton was present for this matter. <br />City Administrator Bernhardson explained this application to <br />the Council and Mayor Grabek. <br />Councilmember Goetten said that she was surprised that <br />hardcover in the 75-250' zone was not addressed at the Planning <br />Commission meeting. She said that 58% in that area is far too <br />much. She said that she would like to see a decrease in <br />hardcover in the 75-2501 area if this application is proposed. <br />Goetten said that sh- did not oppose the structure being <br />proposed, if something could be worked out with the staff to <br />remove existing hardcover. <br />Mayor Grabek expresEad his concern with the conversion of <br />decks into Q*ructure. Mayor Grabek said that hi could not see <br />the hardship for placing the addition in the 0-75' setback zone. <br />Councilmember Goetten asked Mr. Pemberton if it would be <br />possible to locate the addition elsewhere? <br />Councilmember Callahan indicated that he agreed wits. the <br />Planning Commissioners that voted aga'_nst app:-.)val of this <br />application. <br />Mr. Pcinberton indicated that he did not understand how the <br />deck, which is hardcover, would be allowed, but putting a ro-)f <br />over the deck and closing it in without extending it further <br />toward the lake is not allowable. He said that he d'd not <br />understand why he would be asked to remove hardcover from the <br />front of the house when he is not proposing to do anything to the <br />front of the house. <br />Mayor Grabek said that the City is trying to protect the <br />area between 0' and 75' of the lakeshore. Mayor Grabek said that <br />the City would set a prece::=nt by allowing structures to be built <br />in that area. Grabek said that each-pplicatien is reviewed for <br />a hardship that will warrant the approval of a variance. <br />Mr. Pemberton reiterated his inability to understand how his <br />proposal would have any more impact on the lake than what is <br />currently existing. He noted that the hardcover being rem-vP,4 in <br />front of the house is more than double than the are? being <br />converted into the addition on the back of the house. <br />7 <br />
