Response to Haxdship Variance Questions <br /> 1. Due to the lot size, configuration and driveway easement, it would be <br /> impossible to meet the average setback line, surface square footage, <br /> and provide enough structural square footage for a lot of this value <br /> And accommodate parking. , ' � � <br /> 2. This property is endowed with gorgeous mature trees creating a <br /> natural site barrier from the neighbors. A conforming structure would <br /> require removing 8 of the 11 one hundred plus year trees in that area <br /> of the lot. <br /> 3. It will not alter the character, if granted the new structure will <br /> conform to the character of the surrounding architecture and <br /> neighborhood lakeshore ambiance created by the huge existing trees. <br /> � 4. The current assessed value is 1.6K (lot value). A standard ratio of <br /> land value to structure is that the structure by 3X the land value <br /> (home value +land) + 4.8K. Sometimes with the lake lot prices the lot <br /> is 1/2 the total value. In any even if the lot value is $1.6 a good <br /> economic decision to build on this lot would be if you can build a total <br /> package (home +land) at a minimum of$3.2 If this is not possible, <br /> you investment is devalued. <br /> 5. N/A <br /> 6. N/A . <br /> 7. N/A - <br /> 8. The neighbors would prefer the use of the current footprint preserving <br /> the staggered home locations for privacy and retention of the mature <br /> trees which screen their'view of the house and maintains the current <br /> character of the land vs. a clear-cut barren lot. <br /> 9. The conditions are unique to the house due to the era in which it was <br /> - built, the location of the footprint, and the trees. The existing home is <br /> . a concrete block, flat roof contemporary home built in 1949. � <br /> lO.To build a home that more closely correlates to the assessed land <br /> value and one that is architecturally more consistent with the rest of � <br /> the neighborhood. <br /> 11.N/A <br /> 12. By granting our requested variances we will be preserving the unique <br /> character of the lot with the least disruptions to the neighbors and the � <br /> ecology while blending in architecturally to the neighborhood. <br /> �ECEIYE� <br /> � <br /> JUN �. � 20Q9 ' <br /> u � .�..
