The existing residence and <br /> an accessory building will be removed. A demolition permit has not yet been obtained. <br /> The lot is located within the LR-1B, One Family Lakeshore Residential District, which has a <br /> minimum lot size of one acre. The lot is approximately .996 acres in size. A lot area variance is not <br /> required because the lot meets 80 percent of the required area. A lot width variance is required to <br /> construct a new residence because the lot is approximately 100 feet wide where 140 feet is required. <br /> Bottenberg noted this lot is a lakeshore lot and is sewered. Bottenberg stated the Aplicant has <br /> submitted a new survey showing the new hardcover numbers. <br /> City Staff is recommending approval of the application subject to the new residence meeting all <br /> height requirements, setbacks, hardcover, structural lot coverage, and grading requirements. <br /> Vogelgesang stated the new residence will be a general improvement to the neighborhood, with the <br /> existing garage to be removed. <br /> Hawn inquired whether the Applicant was aware that the Planning Commission would probably not <br /> grant any additional variances to construct a residence on this property. <br /> PAGE 9 <br />
