Its width will not be reduced. The Fire <br /> Ma.rsliall is reviewing the situation to deteriniiie if the shared roadway needs to be widened. � <br /> Struct�iral Coverage: Most of tlie increase in struct�ual coverage comes fioin tlie garage <br /> adciifiion, wllich measures 24 feet by 26 feet. The existing garage aud shed total 414 square <br /> feet, enough to construct a 20 by 20.7 foot garage. The applicatioii indicates the additional <br /> garage space would be iii lieu of a basenlent. It woulci also provide storage space for <br /> gasoline-powered equipment that should iiot be stored in within the living area. The larger <br /> garage would also allow space for laiidscaping betweeiZ the driveway and the house. The new <br /> lakeside overhang is mostly over tlie patio so it does not iiicrease hardcover. If a new house <br /> were being const�ucted with the sanie size garage as �roposed, the maxiiilum living space <br /> would be aboirt 3,600 square feet. The reinodeled house would liave about 2,700 square feet <br /> of liviug space. Is the ainotmt of structi.iral coverage appropriate? Staff suggests the <br /> Conuiussion take urto consideration the design of the second story to resemble a lialf-story <br /> and the conversioii of the enclosed living space closest to tlie lake into an open porch. <br /> Lake and Average Lakeshore Setbacks: The only new eiicroacluilent into tlie average <br /> lakeshore setback will be a snlall part of the roof over the porch that will be created froin <br /> what is now euclosed living space. � The Comnzission should consider if it appropriate to <br /> prohibit the enclosure of the porch or the area uiider the new overhang. <br /> Hardcover Variance: The allowed hardcover would probably oi�ly allow the portion of the <br /> shared roadway that is outside the easement. Is the proposed atiiount of hasdcover <br /> appropriate? � <br /> Are there any other issues or concerns with tlus application? <br /> Staff Recommendation , <br /> Plamung Staff reconunends: <br /> 1. Approval of the setback variance fioiii North Shore Drive subject to review of the <br /> width of the shared roadway by the Fire MarshalL <br /> 2. Approval of tlle Structural Lot Coverage, Lakeshore Setback, and Average Lakeshore <br /> Setback va�iances subject to the open porch and lakeside overhaug not being <br /> converted to eilclosed space. (The resolutioiz would be v✓ritten to prohibit such <br /> enclosure.) <br />
