Economic conditions alone shall not be considered a hardship. <br />The variance requested is the minimum amount ta maintain the minimum setback requirement <br />for the existing house. Economic reasons are no Ionger the primary reason for the requested <br />vanance. <br />f. The Variance would not be materially detrimental to the purpose of this Title or to other <br />property in the same zone. <br />Since a unique situation is present on the property, the variance would not be detrimental to <br />the purpose of the Title or to other property in the same zone. <br />g. The proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent <br />property or substantially increase the cangestion of the public streets or increase the <br />danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property <br />valaes within the neighborhood. <br />The proposed variance would not result in any of the above-cited adverse effects. <br />_='� f Recommendation: <br />Based on new information from the applicant, including detailed site plans with building footprints, it <br />appears there may be sufficient hardship and praciical difficulty associated with the location of the <br />house to warrant approval of the variance requested.
