Site plan
The site plan must show all existing structures on the site; all existing structures
within 100 feet of the perimeter boundary of the site; and a clear illustration of
the proposed variance.
LDC Section 34‐87
The guidelines for decision‐making regarding a request for a variance are as
follows:
1. Whether there are exceptional or extraordinary conditions
or
circumstances
that are inherent to the property in question, or whether the
request is for a de minimis variance under circumstances or conditions
where rigid compliance is not necessary to protect public policy;
2. Whether the exceptional or extraordinary conditions justifying the
variance are or are not the result of actions of the applicant taken after the
adoption of the regulation in question;
3. Whether the requested variance is the minimum variance to relieve the
applicant of an unreasonable burden caused by the application of the
regulation in question;
4. Whether granting the variance would be injurious to the neighborhood or
otherwise detrimental to the public welfare;
5. Whether the conditions or circumstances of the specific piece of property
or the intended use of the property for which the variance is sought are of
so general or recurrent a nature as to make it more reasonable and
practical to amend the regulation in question.
