Dane County Board of Adjustment Minutes Page 3 of 16 September 25,2008 COMMUNICATIONS: 09/16/2008 Dunn Town Board "recommends approval ...conditioned upon them installing a rain garden and keeping the surface runoff generated on this property from going onto the adjacent properties. No objections were raised." 09/23/2008 Email from John Hausbeck, Supervisor, City/County Public Health with attachment from Martin Nessman, Water Supply Specialist, WDNR, explaining that the proposed location of the existing well in a proposed rain garden did not meet state regulations; email was read into the record. 09/24/2008 Email from Temple regarding proposed relocation of the existing well at least 100 feet from the proposed rain garden, in compliance with state regulations; email was read into the record. 09/24/2008 Letter from Cami Peterson, Water Regulation and Zoning Specialist, WDNR, recommending denial of the variances; letter was read into the record. VARIANCES REQUESTED: Purpose: Allow construction of a new single-family residence on an existing, substandard, platted lot in the Shoreland district Lot Area Variance: Minimum lot area required: 15,000 SF for sewered Shoreland lot. Actual lot area: 8,377 SF. VARIANCE NEEDED: 6,623 SF Lot Width Variance Minimum lot width at building setback line required: 100 feet. Actual lot width: 60.00 as platted, 59.97 feet as surveyed at building setback line. VARIANCE NEEDED: 40.00 feet as platted, 40.03 feet as surveyed IN FAVOR: Terry Temple, Temple Construction, Inc., Madison, WI -- designer and contractor Jerry Rekowski, Stoughton, WI — owner, was "available for information only" OPPOSED: None ZONING ADMINSTRATOR'S RECOMMENDATION: No recommendation from Zoning Administrator Roger Lane, as reported by Assistant Zoning Administrator Schutte. Motion: Hamre/Studz to grant a variance of 6,623 square feet (SF) from minimum required 15,000 SF lot area, and a variance of 40.00 feet as platted, 40.03 feet as surveyed from the 100 feet minimum required lot width at the building setback line, to allow construction of a new single-family residence on an existing, substandard, platted lot in the Shoreland district, with the Condition requested by the Town of Dunn: "[I]nstalling a rain garden and keeping the surface runoff generated on this property from going onto the adjacent properties." Finding of Fact: 1. Vacant lot in Colladay's Point Subdivision was platted in 1939, and is in the R-3 Residential zoning district and Shoreland district of Lake Kegonsa. Permits were issued for a new house on this lot 1978 and again in 1980, but both expired, and no house was built. 2. The lot area measured to "water's edge" at time of survey (08/05/08) was 8,377 SF (The Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) of 843.5 was not determined at that time, due to the high water level.) The lot width at building setback line is 60 feet platted, 59.97 feet as surveyed. The averaged setback from (Ordinary High Water Mark) OHWM is 52 feet as per survey and as verified by research into Zoning Division records. . 3. The owner proposes to build a new two-story, single-family residence with a walkout lake-front lower level, including lower level usable space beneath the attached garage. Temple provided updated plans and elevations for the Board's review. Proposed plans show no encroachment into any setbacks, and compliance with maximum 30% lot coverage and maximum height restrictions. 4. Temple described site development: Well relocation and landscaping features (rain garden, new rip-rap bank, complying maximum 30-foot viewing corridor) will reduce run-off and comply with Dane County and WDNR regulations. The site plan respects existing sanitary sewer lateral and grinder pump easements.
