The remaining hardcover will consist of a lakeside deck, stairs, and retaining walls <br /> —previously porlions of the home were located within 75' of the lake. The applicants �re <br /> �lso requesting 32.5% hardcover wiihin the 75' — 250' zone. The applicants are <br /> removing the existing residence anci hlydcover which exceed the allowed lin7it for the 75' <br /> — 250' setbacic zone at 35%. The exisfiing home also encroaches infio the south side <br /> setblck and the 75' zone. The applicants are proposing to constrtitct a home with a 3,21� <br /> s.f. footprint including a deck. <br /> The applicants' have proposed a driveway which will fiinction as a parking area as well <br /> as access to the property. Ivy Place is quite narrow and does not allow for any guest <br /> parking or fttrn around. <br /> Hardsl�ip St�tement • <br /> Applicant has completed the Hardship Documentation Form attached as �xhibit B, and <br /> should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application. <br /> H�rdship An�Iysis <br /> lir cnnsir/ering «pp/icatio�rs for variance, tlre P/anni�rg Cnnr�nissioir slrnll consider tlte effec! of 1/re <br /> proposed vnriturce irporr 1/re/rea/t/�,srrfety trnd ivelfare of t/re cnnlnzru�ify, e.risli�rg nrrrl a�iticipaterl traffc <br /> cnndilio�rs, /igkt and air, danger of fire, risk in l/re perblic safely, and the effect o�t vrr/r►es of prnperty in <br /> llre sirrrounding nrea.

In <br /> order to meet the 25% hardcover limitation ii would push the house fiirther back toward <br /> the road causing a"tunnel effect" lake view, additionally the property.owners would have <br /> a diff cult time parlcing guest vehicles (i.e, their children�,'vehicles) or m�neuvering <br /> �round on the property.
