Melanie, Thank you for your email.... Please know,the Average Lakeshore Set Back Line ("ALSBL")submitted is drawn accurately and complies with all aspects of the ordinance, including the parts of which you cite below—I attach the copy we pulled. The ALSBL is drawn from the next closet residence structure, and originates at the point of the residence protrosion attached to the residence(I further note this protrusion in this case is more than 42 inches high along more than half its length. Therefore,the ALSBL submitted in the survey and attested to by the surveyor is, if fact, per the ordinance drawn from the most lakeward protrusion of the residence building on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lot. But that is only half the story and its not necessary to "drill down"further on this, because the proposed deck replacement in this instance doesn't even come close to the ALSBL. In this case,the 13 feet deep proposed replacement deck(only 2 or so feet deeper than the existing lower deck)does not even close to approaching the ALSBL. The attached Illustration below shows this point. In the illustration below,a red line is drawn towards lake straight out from house until it crosses the ALSBL. Significantly,the point where the two lines cross is more than 27 feet out from the house. The replacement deck is this case is only 13 feet from the house—14 feet short the set back requirement. I hope this helps. Can we please get this approved and process this permit so I can start the project. Much appreciated! Thanks for your help, Mark Further Illustration: �
