Staff supports granting <br /> the 0-75' zone hardcover variance and a CUP to allow construction of the new stairway to the <br /> lake. <br /> Issues for Consideration • <br /> 1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the <br /> property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control? <br /> 2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variances, if granted, will not alter the <br /> essential character of the neighborhood? � <br /> 3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the <br /> impacts created by the granting of the requested variances? <br /> 4. Does the Commission find there are additional conditions which should be placed <br /> upon the CUP approval? <br /> 5. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application? <br /> Staff Recommendation �• <br /> Planning Staff recommends approval of the CUP for the minimal grading work within the 0 to 75 <br /> foot zone as well as a hardcover variance to allow the reconstruction and reorientation of the <br /> lake access stair. <br />
