Lot area. Excluding the area below the OHW of Lake Minnetonka, the lot is 1.27 acres when the <br /> zoning dish-ict requires two acres. <br /> 2. Lot width. The property has a defined lot width of 176 feet at the OHWL and 174 feet at the 75 <br /> foot setback. The zoning district requires 200 feet of width. <br /> 3. Lakeshore setback. The applicant is proposing to set the house back 12 to 50 feet from the lake <br /> when the shoreland regulations require a 75-foot setback from the lake. <br /> 4. Average lakeshore setback. The proposed home is shown in location which improves the average <br /> lakeshore setback encroachment by 32 feet for the property to the west and slightly improves the <br /> encroachment for the property to the east. However,the home still encroaches up to 44 feet into <br /> the average lakeshore setback and will be taller than the current home. <br /> 5. Floodplain setback. The house would be set back 2 to 64 feet from the mitigated floodplain.The <br /> floodplain regulations require a 15-foot setback. <br /> 6. Hardcover within the 0-75 foot zone. Hardcover in the 0-75 foot zone is proposed to be 24.4 <br /> percent,reduced from 27.6 percent. In addition to the proposed home and a 653 square foot <br /> patio,there is a stone border and a wooden wall along the lake which are currently proposed to <br /> remain. This would net a 490 square foot reduction in hardcover. <br /> PAGE 5 <br />
