This encroachment is on • <br /> the opposite side of the lot from the affected ' <br /> neighboring residence, and will cause no significant <br /> impairment of lake views enjoyed by that neighboring <br /> property owner. The proposed patio at grade level, <br /> which technically encroaches 15' past the average <br /> setback line will cause absolutely no visual impairment • <br /> to the affected neighbor. <br /> B) Existing hardcover on the property in the 75-250' <br /> is 32.4�. The Planning Commission finds no hardship • <br /> that justifies increasing above the existing hardcover � <br /> percentage, hence any additional hardcover associated <br /> with the proposed additions should be offset by � <br /> removals of existing hardcover elsewhere in the 75-250' <br /> zone. � <br /> • C) The proposed additions are intended to continue <br /> � along the line of the existing house, which is 8.9' , . <br /> from the west side lot line where a 10' west side <br /> setback would normally be required. Because the <br /> neighboring residence is approximately 25' away from - <br /> applicant's residence, the l.l' variance will have no <br /> significant impact on reducing open space around the . <br /> neighboring residence. r <br /> 4 . The City Council has considered this application <br /> including the findings and recommendations of the Planning <br /> Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant <br /> and the effect of the proposed variances on the health, . <br /> safety and welfare of the community. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on � �, <br /> this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally <br /> to other property in this zoning district; that granting the <br /> variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions, � <br /> light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to <br /> neighboring property; would not merely serve as a <br /> convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate , <br /> a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to <br /> preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and <br /> would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning _ <br /> • Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. _ � <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br />
