Zoning File #2185 October 15, 1996 Page 2 Request for Council Action continued page 2 of2 October 25, 1996 Zoning File #2185 Description of Request Applicants seek approval of 20'x20' addition to the existing residence to be placed at the northeast comer and lake side of residence. The majority of structure will be placed over an existing patio. Some 75 s.f. of the new structure hardcover will be matched with an equal removal of 75 s.f. of concrete walkway along lake side of residence. The addition will meet all required setbacks. Refer to Exhibit J, the lot to the north remains undeveloped. The original home was razed over three years ago. The proposed addition will not encroach the lakeshore setback line of the residence to the south. The single story addition will provide an expansion of the existing first level living room. The addition will extend approximately 5' further in front of the existing lake side building line of the principal structure. Description of Hardship Please refer to Exhibit A. In June of 1987, applicants applied for a permit for their swimming pool. The water retention area at 900 s.f. or 2.2% was not considered hardcover at that time. Hardcover is now shown with an excess of 2.18% hardcover as water retention area is included in hardcover facts. Another of the findings or hardships noted by applicants would be the location of the residence approximately 150' from the lake. The actual retention area of the pool would accommodate up to a 9" rainfall event. No other variances are required for this improvement. Planning Commission Recommendation To approve as proposed the hardcover variance within the 75-250' setback area for Richard and Mary Jo Kovacevich to permit construction of a 20'x20' living room addition to the lake side of the residence and to approve hardcover within 75-250' setback area at 27.18% subject to applicants completing the removal of all non structural paving improvements prior to the footing inspection for new construction. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: To adopt or amend the enclosed approval resolution. ch
