(.31 acres) List of Exhibits. A Resolution B Staff Report and Exhibits of 4/16/2001 Application Summary: The applicants have applied for an after -the -fact variance to permit a 4 foot overhang that was added over an existing sidewalk. Over the past winter the applicants had some remodeling done to their residence. At that time it became evident that the sidewalk leading to the front door of their residence was covered with snow, ice and was dangerous to walk on. The four foot overhang does not increase the amount of hardcover in the 75-250' setback zone. The hardcover is currently 3,555.83 s.f. (36.3%) where 2,452 s.f. (25%) is allowed. In 1991 a variance was granted to allow the hardcover to be at 3,555.83 (36.3%). The overhang does increase the structural lot coverage. The existing lot coverage is 1,892 s.f. (13.8%) where 1,996 s.f. (14.6%) is proposed and 2,050.5 s.f. (15%) is allowed. Still below the allowed amount by City ordinance. 1.
