D) A variance to allow a garage addition was granted in 1983 for 576 net additional square feet of hardcover above the 5,065 s.f. figure. The garage was never constructed. That garage was to be Iocated 39' from the lakeshore. That variance has since expired, and the current appYicant does not wish to renew the variance. E) The existing house site is relativeI.y low, near the lake level. The house has no basement, hence interior space is limited. The layout of the house limits the expandability of the kitchen and bedroom areas within the existing wall boundaries. F) The additions will have no effect on any lake views of neighboring property owners and will not be visually • perceived as a widening of the house, when viewing `from the lake. G) Hardships to the property include the lot configuration proximity to lakeshore on 3 sides, and the fact that almost the entire house is Yess than 75' from the shoreline. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. , 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are pecul.iar to it and do not apply generaYly to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficu Tty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property ' right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
