B. The new garage addition will result in the removal of the existing <br /> detached garage which is located less than 3' from the south side lot line <br /> where current standards for a detached garage would require a 10' <br /> minimum setback, thereby eliminating this non-conforming structure. <br /> C. The nroposed location of the garage/bedroom/bath addition in the <br /> northerly half of the properly will minimize �he amount of driveway <br /> hardcover in the 75-250' zone. <br /> D. The proposed sunroom is over an existing deck and therefore constitutes <br /> no new hardcover in the 75-250' zone. Further, the proposed sunroom <br /> does not encroach on the average lakeshore setback, and its location 27' <br /> from the lot line will have no impact on neighboring properties. <br /> E. The increase in hardcover on the property from 23.9% to 26.7% is being <br /> minimized by removal of a portion of the existing deck, as well as <br /> removal of the detached garage and existing sidewalk. Hardcover in the <br /> 250-500' zone of 19.9% where 30% would be allowed also is a positive <br /> aspect of the proposal. <br /> F. Because the e�cisting septic system is located in the area of the proposed <br /> garage/bedroom/bath addition, and because that septic system must remain <br /> in use untiUunless municipal sewer is provided to the property, it is <br /> appropriate that construction of this addition be delayed until such time <br /> that sewer is available, while the sunroom addition will not be hindered <br /> by the septic system location. <br /> 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br /> recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments <br /> by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and <br /> welfare of the community. <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
