Fleischhacker, 2775 S:ladywood Road - <br />Variance - Second Review <br />Additional Exhibits <br />- Revised Deck Plan <br />- Revised Deck Plan With Staff Notations <br />- Letter of Explanation <br />Discussion: <br />Mr. Fleischh�.�ker has revised his deck plans as directed by the <br />Planning Commission at your August 18th meeting. <br />75' Setback Encroachment <br />Avg. Setback Encroachment <br />0-75' Existing Hardcover <br />0-75' Proposed <br />75-250' Existing (6,253 <br />75-250' Proposed <br />Original Proposal <br />2 0 ' <br />10' <br />(10 s.f. or 0.1%) <br />276 s.f. (3.7%) <br />s.f. or 38.1%) <br />J,268 s.f. (38.1%) <br />Revised Proposal <br />9.5' <br />0' <br />177 s.f. (2.4%) <br />6,275 s.f. (38.2%) <br />As you can se,.: from the numbers and the drawing provided, the <br />magnitude of encroachment into the 75' zone has been reduced substantially. <br />The wide dash line shows the original proposal. (Note that staff's numbers <br />reflect the 75' setback line a little bit nearer the house than the <br />applicant's representation, based on the survey.) <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />The hardcover numbers include all of the decking, hence if a varia:.:e <br />is granted for the revised proposal, staff recommends that the variance <br />include the decks as hardcover. Mr. Fleischhacker expressed a concern <br />about the Y" spacing r-`' ted to walking on it with spike high heels. Staff <br />suggests .o reduce t spacing to 1/4" but use more,narrower boards to <br />maintain the maximum 12:1 board -to -space ratio, i.e. use 3" boards will"' <br />1/4" spacing, or 2" boards with 1/6" spacing (if a variance is granted f <br />the hardcover, then the spacing won't be a fact•.c r - especially since mos, <br />of the deck is over concrete patio anyway). <br />If Planning Commission feels that the revised deck proposal is <br />justified given the facts presented, then a recommendation for approval <br />would be in order, :Waking findings supportive of the recommendation. <br />// <br />
