Applicant should not be penalized for the existing (Cont.) driveway hardcover in the lagoon 0-75' zone, and in fact his driveway proposal minimizes the additiona ldriveway hardcover required. 5. The 75-250' zone on the north side of the lagoon must stay non -hardcover. 6. The neighbors' request for the setback variance to allow for the least disruptive sightlines, to maintain uniformity, and the capability to direct all drainage over 100' of relatively flat lawn area, would seem to justify the granting of a variance to the lakeshore setback. 7. The setbacks from neighbors both on Lake Minnetonka side and lagoon side are in conformance and both neighbors have indicated their approval. 8. This is a unique piece of property with unique characteristics with lakeshore located on both sides of the property. 9.
