Smith inquired whether they would <br /> like to table it or have the Planning Commission vote on the motion that has been made denying the <br /> application. <br /> Cable indicated he would like the Planning Commission to vote on the application. <br /> Smith seconded the above motion. <br /> �'OTE ON THE ABOVE MOTION: Ayes 4,Nays 0. <br /> (#2) #01-2668 MANLE BROTHERS CONSTRUCTION, 1973 FAGERNESS T ROAD, <br /> VARIANCES,7:05 p.m.—7:18 p.m. ' <br /> Curt Manley, Applicant,was p sent. <br /> Weinberger stated this is a three-p application,with the Applican requesting an after-the-fact <br /> conditional use permit and variances o permit construction of tw retaining walls within 75 feet of the <br /> lakeshore, a variance to permit two do er window additions ithin 75 feet of the lakeshore and <br /> within the average lakeshore setback,an a request to repl e a deck and three foot hand railing <br /> around a detached garage. <br /> �Veinberger stated the retaining walls were co tr ed approximately one year ago to help stabilize <br /> the lakeside of the residence and to improve th alkout area. Weinberger stated the City is unable to <br /> verify that there retaining walls in that area vio to the construction of the new ones. Weinberger <br /> stated it is possible some very low level b der wa may have existed in this area which were <br /> completely covered by vegetation and not appear i the City's photographs. A previous variance <br /> application in 1998,�which included urvey,did not d ict retaining walis in that portion of the <br /> property. The City also does not e any documentatio showing when the original retaining walls <br /> were constructed. <br /> The second part of the app ' ation is a request to allow the co truction of two dormer window <br /> additions within 75 feet the lakeshore and within the averag akeshore setback. A variance is <br /> required because the er windows would be an expansion o e building within a required <br /> setback. 1"he dorm would be an expansion of the building enve pe within 75 feet of the lake and <br /> an expansion of t building envelope within the average setback to he two adjacent residences. <br /> The third pa of the request is to permit replacement of the deck and a ree-foot hand railing that is <br /> located o op of the detached garage. Weinberger indicated there was a origina(deck located on the <br /> Darage epicted in a photograph taken in 1998, along with a hand raiting. he original deck was <br /> removed from the top of the garage so the roof could be replaced. The App 'cant is proposing to <br /> replace the deck and railing in a similar style to what had been there pr�vious ,. <br /> Weinberger recommended the Planning Commission consider the retaining walls separate from the <br /> other requests. <br /> PAGE 6 <br />
