E( UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 1: 1�r HOLM, KLAUS (V-329-69) - Request for 15' reduction in rear and side setbacks to 15' fox pool at 12440 Hilltop Drive. Staff report was presented noting the applicant had requested a 15' reduction in side and rear setback to 15' but that the Planning Commission recommended the pool be rotated so as to lie parallel to contours and further recommended a 10' reduction in side and rear setbacks, rather than the 15' requested. MOTION AND SECOND: Councilman Benson moved, seconded by Helgesson, that a 10' reduction in side and rear setbacks to 20' for pool at 12440 Hilltop Drive be approved. Council discussion ensued, with Floor participation by Mrs. Holm and Mrs. Louise Dronkert, 11985 Magdalena Road, speaking in support of the variance. Mrs. Holm noted the following: Nineteen neighboring property owners had signed approval of the 15' variance request; relocating the pool would move it closer to the slope and would place a portion of the pool under existing trees, as well as restrict the amount of decking possible; the applicants' intend to fence the entire property. MOTION AMENDMENT AND VOTE: Councilman Benson moved, seconded by Helgesson, that the Motion approving the variance of Klaus Holm (V-329-69) be amended to allow a 15' reduction in side and rear setbacks. The amended motion granting the variance was carried unanimously by voice vote.
