Applicants are req:lesting a lot widt'n variance to construct a new house on this 2.3 acre property. The existing lot width is 118' where 200' is required, for a variance of 821. The proposed house location meets the required 30' side setbacks for the I.R-lA district. This house will be located 104' back from the front lot line, and is not considered a lakeshore lot, hence no average lakeshore setback requirement is in effect. The applicants have provided information for construction of a complete septic system to serve the property, however he notes that if sewer to this area is intended in the near future, he would prefer not to construct an entire septic system that would be abandoned after only a short period of use. The applicants neighbor to the east has discussed a relocation of applicants' proposed house, to move it northward approximately 10-15' in order that the neighbor's existing views of the lake are preserved. The Planning Commission did not feel compelled to make that house relocation condition of their approval, since nothing in the Zoning Code woul- disallow the originally proposed location. Hardcover is well within the prescribed limits. Staff Recommendation - :staff recommends approval of the requested lot width variance per the Planning Commission recommendation. A resolution for approval is attached.
