Dane County Board of Adjustment Minutes Page 4 of 8 May 22,2008 Conclusions: 1. Unnecessary Hardship: It would be unreasonably burdensome to prevent the increase in size of a permitted use on this property. The variance does not consider the need of the applicant. 2. Unique Limitations of the Property: The lot was created in 1901 and in current ownership since 1939. The lot width cannot be increased without reducing neighbors' lot widths, which are already below the minimum Shoreland width requirement. 3. No Harm to Public Interests: No impact on Lake Waubesa. No encroachment into required setback from Wetlands. Minimal relief: No other variances needed. Town approved application. Board's decision balances concern for purposes of Shoreland zoning with property rights granted under Zoning Ordinance. Motion carried: 4—0. Lane returned to the meeting at approximately 7:40 p.m. IV. RECONSIDERATION OF APPEALS FROM PREVIOUS HEARINGS 1. Request to Reconsider Appeal 3498 as granted at the September 27, 2007 Public Hearing: Appeal by Cynthia A. Anderson et al. for variances from minimum width at the building setback line, minimum lot area and maximum lot coverage for two existing substandard lots in the Shoreland District, and from minimum rear yard and minimum setback from road as provided by Sections 11.03(1), 10.05(4) and (5), 10.07(8) and 10.17(1) and (4), Dane County Code of Ordinances, to permit additions/ alterations to two existing single-family residences, new detached garage, and new Certified Survey Map as proposed at 2112 and 2114 Colladay Point Drive, being Lot 46, Colladay's Point, Section 23, Town of Dunn. COMMUNICATIONS: 05/19/2008 Letter from Cindy Anderson, requesting reconsideration of the plans submitted to the Board as approved under Appeal 3498 on 09/27/2007. 05/20/2008 Letter of support from Town of Dunn 05/21/2008 Revised letter from Cindy Anderson, requesting reconsideration of the plans submitted to the Board as approved under Appeal 3498 on 09/27/2007, including additional new evidence regarding groundwater and soil stability of the proposed home site. RECONSIDERATION REQUESTED: Reconsideration is requested only for the proposed additions and alterations to the existing single- family residence on Lot 1, CSM 12333 at 2112 Colladay Point Drive. Zoning staff determined that the house remodeling plans presented for a Zoning Permit on 04/21/2008 differed substantially from those submitted for Appeal 3498 in September 2007 and from slight adjustments approved by Zoning Administrator Roger Lane and Schutte in January 2008, as described in detail in an email dated January 11, 2008 from Schutte to Anderson. Anderson requested that the Board approve the most current plans, dated 05/19/2008. Anderson also requested slightly increased (by 0.5 feet to 1.0 feet) variances from setbacks to right- of-way and to rear yard to allow for possible minor adjustments during construction and for measurements to finished walls. No additional variances (for example, for setback to Ordinary High Water Mark, which was not requested previously) may be considered without a new Public Hearing. Setback from Road Variance: Minimum setback from right-of-way required: 20 feet. Actual Setback: From front lot line: 4.5 feet. Variance Granted 09/27/2007: 15.5 feet ADDITIONAL VARIANCE REQUESTED = 16.0 OR 16.5 FEET Rear Yard Variance: Minimum rear yard required: 25 feet. Actual rear yard: 4.7 feet. Variance Granted 09/27/2007: 20.3 feet.
