While the � , <br /> applicant has proposed to rernove what appears to be a great deal of concrete within the 0 � <br />�;:;:�:���; . �. —75' and 75' =250' zones their proposed hardcover removals are not significant enough � <br />�:�:.�;;; . <br /> - . to justify the additional structural and nonsiruchiral hardcover being proposed. <br /> � .-;:.:::•:.'. � . . <br /> � � �:.. Staff also�feels that�tlie e;ccessive hardcover levels within the 75' — 250' zone on this , . <br /> :: � -: property, existing arid proposed, are itnreasonable. -. There are a number of additional � <br /> � ��� hardcover (and structural hardcover)�removals which could result in a conforming 75' - . <br /> � . 250' zone. Additionally, Staff feels that as the existing home is essentially beirig rebuilt <br /> `, � � from the foimdation up, there riiay be merit in building an entirely new home in a •� <br /> .'..�'•T.i�•.'.�' � � . <br /> :;,;:,�; conforming location. <br /> °`;:�4'�'='� . The applicanfi has two garages, a large driveway and parking area adjacent fio botli, a very . <br /> , large pool, and consicierable paved areas around the home. While the removal of the <br /> � ' plastic under the landscape rock is an improvement, it is �a required component of <br />"�:.�.'�;: � hardcover review and•cannot be considered a net reduction. Staff feels that there are• . <br /> inore opportunities for hardcover reductions both within the 0-75'and in the 75'-250' <br /> . zones. . . <br /> � FurCher, tlie existing liome encroaches up to 7' into the 75' zone. While there is little to <br /> � be done about ihis encroacl�rrient, staff does not feel that it is appropriaie to allow further <br /> encroachment, be it with a deck, porcli or patio. <br /> ; � . . . <br /> _�:.� � � .. . . <br /> .,r . . .. :.. . , � <br /> _ � . . • : . . 3 . <br /> . . • � <br /> . - . . . . �,. <br /> . � . . . : "'� <br /> . � <br />
