FILE 07-3323 <br />October 14, 2007 <br />Page 3 of 5 <br />expansion of the use and the cabin would need to be raised several feet to provide adequate <br />ceiling height. <br />The proposed addition would extend the structure 10 feet to the rear. It would be constructed <br />on posts. The second story would have the appearance of a half story but it would not satisfy <br />the Code definition of a half story. The height of the sidewalls would be increased by three <br />feet and the peak height by 12 feet. The proposed structure would satisfy the height and <br />story limitations. (If there were a basement under the structure it would be far enough into <br />the ground to qualify as a basement.) An existing 8-foot by 12-foot shed would be relocated <br />out of the Oto 75 foot zone. <br />As required by the City a new septic system was installed this summer. The septic system <br />extends up the hill behind the cabin. This area was graded and will require a retaining wall <br />up to 48 inches high. Grading and retaining wall are proposed within the Oto 75 foot zone to <br />direct drainage around the cabin <br />LOT ANALYSIS WORSHEET <br />Lot Area/Width: <br />Required Actual <br />Lot Area 5 acres 1.02 <br />Lot Width 200 feet 196 feet <br />Structural Coverage: <br />Allowed Existing Proposed <br />6,661 s.f. 15.00% 1,175 s.f. 2.65% 1,299 s.f. 2.93% <br />Hardcover Calculations: <br />Hardcover Total Area in Allowed Existing Proposed <br />Zone Zone Hardcover Hardcover hardcover <br />0-75 20,186 s.f. 0 s.f. 1,200 s.f. 1,256 s.f. <br />0% 5.83% 6.22% <br />75-250 21,766 s.f. 5,442 s.f. 0 s.f. 319 s.f. <br />25% 1.47% <br />Total for 44,404 s.f. 5,442 s.f. 1,200 s.f. 1,575 s.f. <br />Property <br />Variances <br />The second story addition would have a lake setback of 45 feet and the rear addition would <br />have a lake setback of 67 feet.
