The applicant has not identified a unique hardship that would warrant the granting <br />of the requested variances. <br />2. The strict enforcement of the ordinance would not cause undue hardship because <br />the applicant would be able to construct a garage addition of reasonable size. <br />3. The applicant's desire to increase the garage is a self-created hardship and is not <br />unique to this individual parcel. <br />4. The spirit and intent of the ordinance would not be met because the entire length <br />of the proposed garage would extend two feet into the required setback, reducing <br />the amount of open space intended by the ordinance. <br />5. The request will change the character of the neighborhood. <br />ADOPTED by the City Council this 1st day of November <br />n, Mayor <br />ATTEST: <br />Mary Creager, City ti, <br />
