While the <br /> applicant is reducing the overall struchiral lot coverage and hardcover, staff feels that <br /> there may be fiirther reductions to the plan which could result in meeting the 15% lot <br /> � coverage limit. The proposed tlu•ee car garage, retaining walls, additional driveway width <br /> are all impacting the level of hardcover on this property. <br /> Lot Are� V�►ri�nce <br /> The property is an existing lot of record, served with City sewer and water and located <br /> wifihin a neighborhood of similarly sized properties. Historically, lot area variances are <br /> granted in this situation on a consent basis provided all other City requirements are inet. <br /> Average L�keshore Setback <br /> Tlle proposed stairway at the lakeside of the home extends past tlie average setbacic line, <br /> alihough it meets the 75' setback and likely has no impact on views enjoyed by <br /> neighboring property owners. <br /> H�rdship Statement <br /> Applicant has completed the Hardship Documentation I'orm attached as Exhibit B, ai�d <br /> should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application. <br /> H�rdship An�lysis <br /> /�r consideriitg npplicalions for i�rrriance, II�e Plafuri�rg Commission shall co�rsider t/re effecl of 1/re <br /> proposed t�nrinnce upn�t lhe healt/r,snfely and►velfare of t/1c�cmm�trrniJy, ��is/ing and[r�tticipated/rnffrc <br /> condilinns, /igllf mrd rrir, danger of frre, risk lo Nre prrhlic safety, nnd lhe effect on va/ric�s of properly in <br /> t/re srrrrounding nren.
