C) decrease in hardcover of 1% with type of retention wall <br />to be corstructed; <br />and to approve variances to the hardcover and setback standards <br />for lakeshore properties based on the following findings and <br />hardships: <br />A) steep sloping topography immediately adjacent to house <br />requires flat area for safe utilization of pool and rear <br />yard - access to lake requires series of access stairs over <br />steep sloped areas; <br />B) adjacent yards do not have steep sl- �s as those found <br />in the applicant's lakeshore yard; <br />C) the improvements create no view barrier nor do they pose <br />hazards for neighboring properties; <br />D) the improvement does not alter the character of the <br />neighborhood and would appear the improvements are similar <br />to the improvements within other lakeshore properties with <br />steep sloped lake yards; <br />E) the proposed improvements will have a positive effect on <br />the surrounding property values; <br />P) the location of the 75 foot setback line in relation to <br />rear of house; <br />G) the visual impact of structures within 75 foot setback <br />area is lessened, for property is located on a lagoon and <br />not visible from main lake. <br />5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this <br />property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other <br />property in this zoning district; that granting the variances <br />would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor <br />pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties; <br />would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is <br />necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is <br />necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the appli- <br />cant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the <br />Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
