Board approves small lakefront addition at 2154 Lake Drive after staff backs variance
Summary
The board approved a two‑story ~582 sq ft addition at 2154 Lake Drive (Lake Killarney) after staff said the project met lakefront criteria but requested a side‑setback variance to match an existing nonconforming garage footprint.
Planner Karina Lundgren presented the application for 2154 Lake Drive and told the board the proposal "meets FAR at 15%... they meet Impervious at 29.5%... and they meet the lakefront setback at 131 feet and 10 inches," while noting the applicant sought a variance for an 11-foot-10-inch side setback tied to an existing garage footprint.
Board members asked technical questions about the air‑conditioning unit location and the length of the proposed wall; staff pointed to the floor plan and noted the addition would require articulation standards. No members of the public registered to speak. Several board members said the new work would not encroach closer to the property line and moved to approve staff's recommendation. The motion passed on a roll call vote.
The approval included the requested variance for the side setback; staff emphasized there would be no tree removals, no new pool or retaining walls, and that the addition sits behind neighboring homes and the existing structure.
