At their October 17, 2022 meeting, the City Council reviewed the concept plan for the proposed redevelopment of the Subject Property. Overall, the City Council acknowledged the rational for the reduced front yard setback request given the additional right-of-way acquisitions that had occurred over time. At that time, there were no suggested changes to the conceptual site layout. The Applicants were encouraged to review the rear yard sightlines to make sure that the view of the adjacent property was not obstructed by the placement of the new dwelling. At their December 7, 2022 meeting, the Planning Commission reviewed this planning case. At that time, they recommended approval with nine (9) conditions of Katie Bach and Nate Cmiel's application for a front yard setback variance by a 6-0 vote. 4. Proposed Use The Applicants are proposing to rebuild a single-family dwelling with an attached garage on the Subject Property. They've enlisted the services of an architect to help with the design of their house plans. The Applicants have stated in their application that there are several factors of the lot that the City Council is asked to consider in reviewing the proposed variance: • Irregular lot shape causes 40' front setback to be applied on north and northeast sides, greatly reducing buildable lot area • Current home is nonconforming (25' setback) • Need to maintain existing driveway location and grade • Low elevation in south part of lot would restrict basement due to lake ordinary high water height • Large mature trees restrict home placement options • Guidance to allow 20' clearance from foundation during construction • One large cottonwood will be removed Front Yard .,Proposed Redevelopment Building Site Existing ROW •�h Y -.- ��#i Fr 1 1'1 Existing Development 1 ff 4 R f - - •`tom � Ff t 3 � h'earY�r� Proposed Development Page 3 of 9
