Zoning File #1284 August 31, 1988 Page 2 of 2 Original Proposal: Applicant proposed 0-75' setback area reduction of 2.65%; 75-250' setback area reduction of 2.79% for a total reduction of 5.4%. Amended Proposal: 0-75' setback area reduction of 1.3%; 75-250' setback area reduction of 3.2%; for a total reduction of 4.57%. Total reduction within the 0-500' setback area equals 8.07%. Review of Current Request Please review applicant's letter of August 24, 1988 that notes that applicant's sons incorrectly removed approximately 249 s.f. of paving within the lakeshore yard that was not scheduled for removal. In exchange, the applicant asks that he be allowed to maintain the existing shed and barbecue area and a portion of the paved drive. Although applicant's letter would suggest a 1 or 2 s.f. difference, the ordinances of the City would require that we relate to the removals according to their location within the specific setback zones. The above hardcover facts more clearly reflect that relationship. Within the 0-75' setback area, hardcover proposal was at 3.56% and the amended proposal is 4.9% (existing was 6.2%). Within the 75-250' setback area, total hardcover was proposed originally at 26.4%. The amended proposal is approximately 26.03%. Total removal of hardcover between the 0-250' setback area now proposed at 4.5%, this would still meet the Planning Commission directive at 3.4% recommended level reduction of hardcover within the 0-250' setback area. Options of Action Available to Council - 1. To require that applicant meet the originally proposed 5.47% reduction of existing hardcover within the 0-250' setback area. 2. To approve the request to amend the hardcover removal at 4.57% to allow the paved area within the 75-250' setback area at 72 s.f. and to allow the barbecue area and shed within the 0-79' setback area to remain.
