Please refer to the attached schematic (Exhibit B). In situations where <br /> construction is proposed on a lot(Lot B)where a house is standing on one side (Lot A), and the <br /> lot on the other side is either vacant or right of way(Lot C), the average lake shore setback, in <br /> practice, is the distance the standing house is from the OHWL. There is no straight-line drawn <br /> because there is no neighboring residential structure. <br /> In effect,the neighbor on Lot A alone creates a new setback that is greater than the 75' lake <br /> yard. <br /> Issues for Consideration <br /> 1. Does the Planning Commission agree with the method of determining average lakeshore <br /> for lots adjacent to vacant/ROW property? <br /> 2. If not, what concerns of the Commission should be addressed? <br />
