The properq cannot be put to reasonable use without the granting of the <br />variances requested. Reasonable use can here be defined in the context of historic <br />approval Limited Business parcel area well below the minimum area today <br />required in the Limited Business district. <br />2. The variance requested results from circumstances unique to these properties <br />where land divisions were approved prior to adoption of City zoning and <br />subdivision regulations, and the circumstances of the variance were not solely <br />created by the applicant. <br />3. Granting of the variance will not change the essential character of the <br />neighborhood. <br />Resolution 2004 -091, Variance /Minor Subdivision — Tauer <br />
