The existing house met the original 50' lakeshore <br /> setback although the majority of the structure is located out of the 0-75' <br /> setback area. <br /> C.

There will be no visual impact on the lake views of the adjacent <br /> residences as the two additions are located on the main level and at the <br /> � lake side of residence. Adjacent homes are located on a curved peninsula <br /> with view windows facing out to lake and away from applicants' <br /> residence. <br /> G. The bay addition will encroach the average lakeshore setback by 46.5' <br /> and the kitchen addition by 33'.
