Variance to install a drain field for an Individual Sewer Treatment System (ISTS) within the side yard setback and Middle Cullen Lake OHW setback. Kenneth and Elizabeth Hirschey, applicants. The Hirscheys are requesting a variance to install an ISTS drain field within five (5) feet of the property line to an adjacent lot. The Hirscheys' property is located in the R-1 zoning district. The side setback in the R-1 zone is 10 feet. The property also lies within the Shoreland Overlay District as it sits on Middle Cullen Lake, a General Development (GD) lake requiring a 75-foot setback from the OHW for ISTS. The Hirscheys' parcel is surrounded on three sides by the lake,which dramatically reduces the building envelope for installing the drain field. The proposed drain field is located outside of the required lake setback on all sides,but only by one foot from the north end of the parcel to the south end if it is centered along the eastern property line. The Planning Commission is unanimously recommending that you approve the variance based on the following findings of fact: 1. The property meets the minimum lot size requirement of 20,000 square feet; however, the 75' OHW setback on three sides greatly reduces the building envelope to an area less than 7,052 square feet (the build-able area footprint decreases along the eastern end of the lot due to the configuration of the parcel), which creates a hardship. There is no other area on the property that the Hirscheys can place the drain field without encroaching on the OHW setback or being too close to the deep well on
