The Applicant is proposing to demolish the existing structure and build a 4,363 square foot single- <br />family dwelling with an attached garage, with a 2,447 square foot footprint. To construct the new <br />dwelling with the proposed footprint, the Applicant is requesting to consolidate the two parcels <br />into one residential parcel, as required by statute. The new dwelling would be constructed on the <br />consolidated parcel. <br />The Applicant, who is the architect of the proposed dwelling and represents the Property Owner, <br />states that the variances are requested to allow for a new home that will be in keeping with the <br />other lakeshore neighborhood homes. The narrative states that the existing dwelling sustained <br />extensive damage throughout the home recently due to a burst pipe. A contractor was hired to <br />make repairs but they ultimately damaged other parts of the first -floor level. Faced with repairing <br />the damage, the Property Owner has chosen to build a larger home, triggering the need for <br />variances. <br />The existing dwelling has a basement with mechanical equipment and storage. The Applicant <br />states that the basement was not adequately built and has moisture issues. Flood plain restrictions <br />prevent construction of a new basement and the proposed has been designed with no basement and <br />includes additional storage in the floorplan for mechanical equipment. <br />The proposed new dwelling includes two levels of living space, an attached two -car garage, and a <br />second -level deck on the lake side of the dwelling. The proposed new dwelling would increase the <br />living space within the dwelling and relocate garage access from the northwest direction of the <br />property to the northeast. <br />The Applicant notes the proposed dwelling includes additional safety features for the Subject <br />Property. The submitted garage design would allow for car access to turn into the driveway with <br />more distance and parking space to significantly improve the safety of vehicles in both directions <br />on Lake Johanna Boulevard. The submitted front entry design would also provide pedestrian <br />access to the front door with a wall separating the path of travel from the road. <br />Proposed permeable paving <br />.. <br />°wv <br />--- — — _ _ _ - <br />CF <br />l , <br />}� <br />Proposed dwelling <br />Site <br />LAKE JOHANN <br />"I l I <br />Green — emstin dwelling — —-------- l------------------+- <br />footprint (1,716 square feet) UKE JOHANNA <br />—proposed dwelling EDGE OF WATERLOCATED 0311412025. !I JI ESL <br />ELEVATION = 877.3 FEET <br />footprint (2,447 square feet) <br />ORDINARY HIGH WATER LEVEL = 878.0 FEET _ <br />due - proposed permeable paving <br />Istulg dwelluTg <br />Page 5 of 18 <br />
