Substandard <br />properties within the Shoreland Overlay District, like the subject lot, are able to be redeveloped <br />without variances if specific standards are met; such as: <br />1. All setback requirements can be met; <br />2. A Type 1 sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota Rules, chapter 7080, can <br />be installed or the lot is connected to a public sewer; and <br />3. The impervious surface coverage meets all hardcover location and square footage <br />restrictions of this chapter and the total square footage of hardcover does not exceed <br />25 percent of the entire lot area. <br />4. All other zoning district standards can be met. <br />The applicant has requested side yard setback variances and, in doing so asserts that the <br />property cannot conform to #1 above. Therefore, lot area and width variances are required in <br />order to redevelop the property. Because the property is not subject to Section 78-72, the Tier <br />3 hardcover limitations can be applied. <br />Setback Variances <br />The lot width and the 30-foot required setbacks within the RR-B district result in a 40' x ±130' <br />buildable envelope. Side setback variances are requested from both sides in order allow for a <br />wider footprint which the builder feels would be more in character with the other homes in the <br />surrounding area. The new home will be set at a similar setback from the road as the existing <br />
