Date Application Received: 08/19/15 Date Application Considered as Complete: 08/21/15 120-Day Review Period Expires: 12/19/15 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Date: 22 October 2015 Item No. 7 Department Approval: Administrator Approval: Agenda Section: Name: Melanie Curtis mcc RJO Planning Title: Planner Item Description: #15-3781, Stonewood LLC., o/b/o Harry & Belle Yaffe, 3185 Casco Cir, Denial Resolution Background: At the October 12, 2015 meeting, the Council heard a variance request for an average lakeshore setback variance in order for a four season porch to encroach lakeward of the setback line as well as lot area and lot width variances. The Council voted 5 to 0 to deny the requested average lakeshore setback variance allowing any encroachment. The lot is substandard in area and in width. Typically the Code provision in Section 78-72 regarding a Lot of Record would allow for the property to be redeveloped subject to 25% hardcover as well as conformance with all zoning requirements and setbacks. Because the average lakeshore setback variance was requested, lot width and lot area variances were also required. Because the average lakeshore setback variance was denied at the October 12th meeting, the lot is considered a Lot of Record and no further variances are necessary in order to redevelop the property. Planning Staff Recommendation Staff recommends the Council consider the attached resolution reflecting denial of the average lakeshore setback variance. Please note, redevelopment of this property will still require that the two separate parcels be combined prior to issuance of a building permit for a home crossing the dividing property line. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Council should consider adopting or amending the attached denial resolution. List of Exhibits: Exhibit A. Draft Resolution Exhibit B. Draft Council Minutes 10/12/15
