Variance Review


The Development Review Committee may grant a variance from the terms of the Land Development Code when such variance will not be contrary to the public interest; where, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions of this code would result in unnecessary hardship or where improved or alternative technology would meet or exceed the development and construction standards set forth in this code.  Such variance shall not be granted if it has the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of this code.  Furthermore, such variance shall not be granted by the Development Review Committee unless and until a variance application is submitted demonstrating compliance with one or more of the following:


1.

That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structures, or required subdivision improvements involved, and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or required improvements.


2.

That a literal interpretation of the provisions of this code would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties with similar conditions.


3.

That the actions of the applicant did not cause the special conditions and circumstances which necessitate the variance.


4.

That the granting of the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this code to other lands, structures, or required improvements under similar conditions.


5.

Through improved or alternative technology, the development and construction standards set forth in this code are met or exceeded.


6.

The Development Review Committee finds that the requirements of this code have been met based upon the review and findings of the Development Review Services Department and information presented at a public hearing.


7.

The Development Review Committee further finds that the reasons set forth in the application justify the granting of the variance that would make possible the reasonable use of the land, buildings, or other improvements.


8.

The Development Review Committee finds that the granting of the variance would be in harmony with the general standards, purpose, and intent of this code and will not be injurious to the surrounding territory, or otherwise be detrimental to the public welfare.


9.

The Development Review Committee finds that the granting of the variance would not violate the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
