Bernhardson explained that the Row lettes were seeking a street setback variance for the purpose of installing a sunroom. The sunroom would be located in an existing indentation along the north outer wall of the house. The main issue is hardcover and a patio that the Rowlettes were to have removed in accordance with a variance granted in 1976. • The Planning Commission recently recommended approval of this current application based on the removal of half of the concrete patio. 'Since that time, it had been determined that the patio was split into three sections rather than two. Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron indicated on a diagram the configuration of the patio. Councilmember Callahan questioned why the Planning Commission did not have any concern over the number of concrete slabs. Applicant stated that he had informed the Planning Commission that there were two slabs, but upon re- examining the patio, found there to be three slabs. Applicant stated that he would like to remove the outer slab, which would mean a removal of less hardcover than recommended by the Planning Commission. .Mayor Grabek asked applicant why he had not previously removed the concrete patio as directed by the City. Mr. Row lette stated that he had an ice build -up problem in that area. He could remove the ice from the concrete surface, but could not chip the ice from a wood deck. Mayor Grabek asked Mr. Rowlette if he would also find a reason for not complying with the City should they redirect him to ; remove a portion of the patio. Applicant stated that he and the Planning Commission had discussed this issue and the slab would have to be removed prior to the issuance of the building permit for the sunroom. City Administrator Bernhardson reiterated that applicant was • requesting that only one -third of the concrete patio be removed
