Wetland Impacts <br /> The applicants' property borders a large "Preserve" classification wetland on the east. . <br /> ` This wetiand, if the wetland ordinance were to be triggered, requires a 50' vegetative <br /> buffer and a 20' structt�ral setback from the buffer's edge. While the applicants' proposal <br /> does not appear 'to trigger the application of the wetland ordinance staff feels that due to � <br /> the extremely substandard setback of the home to the lake and wetland it may be <br /> • appropriate to require that some level of vegefiative buffer be planted along the eastern <br /> portion of the yard bordering the wetland and perhaps the lake's edge. <br /> Hardcover Variance <br /> The applicants' proposal for a garage addition results in approximately 575 s.f of <br /> additional structural coverage to be built over the exiiing driveway. The applicants' <br /> proposal results in a request for 4.8% (705 s.f.) additional hardcover within the 75' 250' <br /> zone. � <br /> Side�Yard �nd LRke Setb�ck Variances <br /> The applicairts' exisiing home at 5' encroaches significantly inio the required 10' side <br /> • yard seiback and with the lakeside deck encroaches approxiinately 40' into the 75' <br /> setback from the lake. The applicanis' proposal includes inaintaining the existing 5' <br /> setback for iheir 2"d story and constructing the new garage space to meefi the 10'setback. <br /> The addition to tlie rear of the home, while encroaehing into the 75' setback from the <br /> 929.4' OHWL elevation �tlong tlie eastern portion of ille property, meets the 75' setb�ck <br /> f�om the OIIWL of Lake Minnetonka on the north.
