SVEN GUSTAFSON OF STONEWOOD, <br />LLC, 1785 CONCORDIA STREET, Continued) <br /> <br />Rahn noted the new house would be almost compliant without the pool. <br /> <br />Bremer commented she likes this plan and that she agrees there is some sort of a hardship created by the <br />sewer line. Bremer indicated she would have been willing to approve the application if it did not <br />include a pool and that the applicant will need to make some decisions on what he would like to <br />redesign in order to meet the hardcover requirement. <br /> <br />Dulin noted even without the pool, the plan exceeds the 25 percent hardcover but is below what <br />currently exists on the property. <br /> <br />McMillan noted the porch consists of approximately 800 square feet and that the pool and deck consists <br />of approximately 900 square feet. <br /> <br />Dulin commented they have attempted to reduce the hardcover as much as possible. <br /> <br />Bremer reiterated she would be supportive of the application if the pool were eliminated. <br /> <br />White stated he is in agreement with the Planning Commission and that a hardship has to be inherent to <br />the land. White commented he would be willing to support the application if the pool were eliminated. <br /> <br />Gustafson noted hardcover variances have been granted previously for this property. <br /> <br />Rahn stated he is in agreement with Council Member Bremer and that he would like to see the house <br />moved forward slightly, which would also help reduce the driveway hardcover. <br /> <br />McMillan commented there is some hardship with the sewer line but not enough of a hardship to <br />approve a pool. <br /> <br />Dulin stated he would like to review his options and requested his application be tabled. <br /> <br />Gustafson stated he is unsure whether they can more forward with the MCWD without city approval but <br />that they would look into it. <br /> <br />Rahn moved, Bremer seconded, to table Application #08-3370, Barb and Kevin Dulin with J.
