Tnis type of filling is typical where new ground <br />cover is to be installed. Applicant maintained adequate <br />erosion control thoughout entire restoration. <br />B) The alterations proposed within 75 feet of the lake to <br />permit the installation of the foundation ground water <br />drainfield as proposed in plan by Mark S.

The City Counci l finds that the conditions existing on this <br />property are peculiar to it rind do not apply generally to other <br />property in this zoning district; that granting the variances <br />would not adversely affect trAlfic condition%, light, air not <br />pose a fire hazard or of `ier danger to neighboring properties; <br />would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is <br />necessary to alleviate a dt-monst.able hardship or difficulty; is <br />necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the <br />.applicant; and woull be in keepinq with the spirit r:d intent of <br />the Zoning Code and ccmprehens i ve I' 1 an of the City. <br />Page 3 cf 6 <br />
