Michael Drazan stated they did relocate the house further back to get out of the setback and reduce hardcover but it was pointed out by Staff that they would lose their view of the lake if the house were moved further back. Ted Capra, 3546 Ivy Place, stated he also moved his house further back to try to help with the hardcover and to gain some off street parking. Rahn inquired what the current survey lists the hardcover at. Michael Drazan stated it is at 32.5 percent. Capra commented it is difficult to turn into the driveway. Jeff Danberry, 3545 Ivy Place, commented it is necessary for some cars to back into his driveway to gain access to their driveway. Bremer stated she would be in support of 30 percent hardcover given the restrictions of the lot and the narrowness of Ivy Place Road. Bremer stated her biggest concern is moving this application forward to the City Council without the Planning Commission reviewing the revised plans. Mary Drazan indicated they would probably not start construction until the spring or summer of next year. Curtis commented the applicants would then also have time to address the 0-75 foot zone. Bremer stated the applicants have the option of having the Planning Commission vote on the application that is before them tonight or tabling the application to allow them time to submit revised plans and to obtain the City Engineer's comments. Mary Drazan stated they would like their application tabled.
