Draft PC Minutes 11/16/15 <br /> Background <br /> At the November Planning Commission meeting the applicant requested four variances in order <br /> to allow construction of decks, a pergola; and an in-ground pool on the lake side of the home <br /> requiring the following variances: an average lakeshore setback variance; a wetland setback <br /> variance; a lake setback variance from the OHWL of French Lake; and a hardcover variance for <br /> hardcover within 75-feet of the OHWL. In response, the applicant has altered their proposal, <br /> requiring average lakeshore setback, lake setback and structure to structure setback variances. <br /> The Planning Commission discussed the lack of practical difficulty supporting the proposed <br /> hardcover resulting from the pool, pool patio and walls within the 75-foot setback. At that time, <br /> the applicant requested the application be tabled to allow time for a potential redesign to <br /> remove the hardcover from the 75-foot setback area. <br /> For the Planning Commission's consideration,the applicant has submitted a revised plan which <br /> results in a pool patio design which follows the contour of the 75-foot setback area; a portion of <br /> the proposed stair and wall to access grade on the lake side as well as a stepper walkway are still <br /> proposed within the 75-foot area. A corner of the pool encroaches as close as 4 feet from the <br /> bottom stair and pergola overhang of the adjacent dining deck; a variance would be needed to <br /> allow this configuration. <br />
