Subtracting the <br /> niinimum driveway, the properry would have 2,668 square feet of hardcover allowance. This , <br /> would accommodate the proposed house and front sidewalk and leave 231 square feet for <br /> deck andlor patio,the wider driveway, or the pool. � � <br /> Is there a hardship that can be related to the average lakeshore setback variance? The <br /> topography of the lot does preclude moving the house farther from the lake. <br /> . Would the proposed pool and pergola be detrimental to adjacent property,owners? If the <br /> � pergola were to extend over the entire patio it could begin to impinge on the view of adjacent <br /> _ properties. The code specifies that all structures must abide by the average lakeshore <br /> � setback: VJhile pools are typically below grade, they usually have above grade appearances <br /> such as ladders and diving boards. � <br /> . Can reasonable use of the property be made without average.lakeshore setback variance? <br /> Without the variance the pergola could cover the portion of the patio behind the average ' <br /> lakeshore setback. The pool could be located on the other side of the house, outside the � <br /> � required setback from the road. <br /> Are there any other issues or concerns with this application? <br /> Staff Recommendation <br /> Planning Staff recommends approval of a hardcover variance to allow 31.03% hardcover <br /> specifically to provide for 115 square feet of hardcover for reta.ining walls arid 1,130 square <br /> feet of hardcover for driveway, conditioned on the site plan being revised to reflect this level � � <br /> of hardcover. Staff would recommend use of mitigative measures such as permeable <br /> pavement and/or raingardens if feasible. <br /> Planning Staff recommends denial of the average lakeshore setback vaxiance for the pool and <br /> pergola. <br />
