New deck stairway to be 62’ from ordinary high water level versus existing deck stairway that is 53.5’ from ordinary high water level. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the variance as requested. After consideration and discussion, Steve Schierer made a motion, seconded by Thomas Lee and unanimously carried, to approve the variances as described in the application dated June 13, 2011 and as depicted in the drawings submitted with the variance application with the condition that no more than 25% of the total eligible lot area can be covered with impervious surfaces. It should be noted that the proposed development is back and away from the lake as it compares with the existing development. The propose development will be an improvement to the property. It was highly suggested that the applicant consider removing or relocating the existing shed down by the lake to a more compliant location. The applicant indicted that he probably would follow this suggestion. and Chris Mitchell - Approved the application as requested with a condition.

APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE ATTACHMENT - PROJECT The property currently has a variance for the existing 14x60 manufactured home, which runs parallel with the shore and 87 feet from the OHWL. We want to replace that one with a 16x80 manufactured home, which would also run parallel with the shore and 87 feet from the OHWL. It would be no closer to the lake. 1. The property currently has an additional variance granted in 1997 for a 30x50 house with a set back of 75 feet from the OHWL. Our new trailer is too long to fit in that variance area, but the point is that the county has granted a 75' set back. 2. The additional 20 feet of trailer to the west of the existing trailer would not obstruct anyone’s view of the lake, and fits the lot appropriately. 3. This is a substandard lot of record with a very limited amount of depth, and there is not another reasonable place to put a residence without removing the evergreen grove. 4. Property to the west has structures that are much closer to the OHWL than we propose. The string test supports this request. 5. ..
