Murphy stated the City unfortunately has had problems with issues being encountered with existing foundations once work has commenced and that he would prefer to see the revised plans prior to approving the resolution. White requested the applicants consider utilizing neutral based colors for the home given the close proximity to the lake. Moseley stated they did request that their architect design an addition that would update their property and fit in with the rest of the neighborhood but be minimally intrusive. McMillan stated this normally would be an opportunity to get a structure out of the 0-75 foot zone but that it is a hardship to relocate the house given the trees and other issues with the lot. McMillan noted this house has been grandfathered in. Bremer moved, Murphy seconded, to direct Staff to draft an approval resolution granting average lakeshore setback and lakeshore setback variances to construct additions and add a half-story to the existing house, and to grant hardcover variances, for the property located at 1635 Bohns Point Road, subject to review and approval of the revised plans by Staff and the City Engineer.
