MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988 ZONING PILE 41311-PURDY CONTINUED Bellows suggested using sand. Cohen added that if grass were used, that area would not be considered in the hardcover calculations. Mrs. Purdy replied that they would remove the fabric if the Planning Commission absolutely required them to do SO. She added that placing the fabric was costly and was done in order to comply with the conditions of approval given by the Council in their 1985 application. Kelley asked how much hardcover was actually being added. Gaffron replied there would he an increase of approximately 40 s.f. in the 0-75' zone. Planning Commission member Johnson stated that the revised proposal was a reasonable alternative and was a fair compromise. It was moved by Planning Commission member Johnson, seconded by Chairman Kelley, to recommend approval of a hardcover variance, subject to staff recommendations. Motion, Ayes=7, Nays=O, Motion passed. i1323 JON W. PAPAS 3369 CRYSTAL BAY ROAD AFTER -TEE PACT VARIANCES SECOND REVIEW The applicant was present for this matter. Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron explained that this application involved an after -the -fact request for a deck. A variance for hardcover in the 0-75' zone would be required, along with an average lakeshore setback variance. This matter was previously heard by the Planning Commission, and was tabled pending submittal of a survey, which has since been received. The hardcover in the 0-75' zone prior to the construction of the deck was 20.7%, the deck has increased that amount to 26.3%. Mr. Papas informed the Planning Commission that the deck was three -fourths completed. He did not realize that he needed a permit to construct the deck and stopped work immediately when a stop work order was issued. He said that he had received letters from his neighbors indicating that they had no objections to the deck. Chairman Kelley asked Mr. Papas what he considered his hardships to be? Mr. Papas replied that there was no other place to put the deck, which he felt would add to i livir. I space on his property. Planning Commission member Hanson commen'ed that based upon a previous approval of an application involving retaining walls within the lakeshore yard, he felt approval of Mr. Papas's application would be appropriate.
