The property was subject to a variance application in 1988. The current··· hardcover c-alculations match that which were appro_yed in 1988. The proposed, pdol would be 115' from the shoreline. The average lak.eshore setback is defined by the house to the northeast, and the house on the west, which is set back. Gaffron said there would be no impact on these neighboring homes. The hardcover calculations shows 33.1% existing in the 75-250' zone, where 25% is allowed, and is proposed at 32.6%. The reduction in hardcover will be acquired through the removal of 1390 s.f oflandscape fabric and plastic and 400 s.f of concrete and wood patio. The pool was looked at as structure. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the application with reductions as noted in hardcover. The applicant was asked to reduce more hardcover if this was possible. Hurr said she saw no problem with the average lak:eshore setback but saw no hardship to add to the structural hardcover. Hurr asked ifthere was anywhere to reduce the amount of hardcover. Gaffron said any further removal would affect the house or driveway. It was noted that this application was for a hardcover variance only, not a structural coverage variance. The structural coverage is at 11 % with the proposed pool. Gaffi-on said the review of hardcover and structure was made due to the issue of non-structural versus structural hardcover issue with landscape beds and plastic underlayment. Hurr asked for clarification of the reduction of non-structural and decking by 400'. Gaffron said the reduction is from a patio 2' above grade. The 400 s.f in patio would be in exchange for the 1500 s.f pool. There is a net reduction in non-structural hardcover of 137 s.f. with the removal of 1390 s.f of plastic and fabric. 5
