Zoning File #1346 October 13, 1988 Page 2 of 2 Discussion - The applicant notes that this storage garage is intended for storage of his lawn care equipment and other miscellaneous items for which he has no other storage room. Although the gravel driveway leading to the lake is only partially graveled, and is only driven on perhaps half a dozen times a year, it is still technically considered hardcover for this review. Staff has not discussed specific hardcover removals with the owner, however, it appears there is enough rock over plastic on the property that removals of the plastic could equal the additional hardcover proposed with the garage, hence there is potential for a result of no increase in hardcover on the property. The garage is located lower than the road, and some drainage is directed toward it. For many years the applicant has had a tile line which outlets next to the gravel drive, perhaps 100' back from the lakeshore. Although the garage is intended to be over this tile line, there would appear to be no great concern with possible future clogging of that line and if it did clog, water would naturally flow around the back side of the garage and generally follow the property line on down. Staff Recomm ndation - Given that this garage meets the required 10' side and rear setbacks for a lakeshore lot, staff would recommend approval subject to the condition that as much hardcover be removed as �_s being added with the new garage, by removing plastic from below 576 s.f. of the existing rock beds. l
