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.
