The land is properly zoned and has had commercial waterfront uses on the property for a number of years. 2. There is a bluff located on the south side of the property leading down to the lake. The property, however, is large enough to place development outside of the bluff and bluff impact zones. There are no other significant natural or historic features on the property that would impede redevelopment of the property. 3. The property currently contains several structures, but does not contain any nonconforming structures. The majority of the structures will be removed, with the units on Lots 1 and 15 and some commonly owned structures on Lot 16 remaining. 4. The applicant has proposed to maintain the in-ground steps to access the lake and to place two docks on the western part of the shoreline. There are not any near-shore aquatic conditions that would hinder or limit access to the lake along the property line. 5. The proposed development, as it is a PUD, is not subject to the normal lot size and dimension standards for the underlying zoning district. The proposed development does, however, meet the minimum design standards for a planned unit development.
