A small portion of the existing house is <br />located 65' from the lake, while the entire new house is proposed to meet the required 75' lake <br />setback. However, because the adjacent property to the so uth is vacant, the required Average <br />Lakeshore Setback is defined by the setback from the lake of the adjacent house to the north, <br />which is 115' from the lake, hence a variance is requested . <br />Additionally, applicants are requesting a variance t o allow hardcover at a l evel of 27.2% where <br />only 25% is normally allowed. Existing hardcover on the site is 29.0%, so the proposal is a <br />reduction of 1.8% or 495.s.f. <br />Council <br />Exhibit C
