Variances are for the modification of size, dimension or design requirements in situations where
unusual physical conditions of the property, such as shape or topography, make it impossible or unduly
difficult to meet requirements of the zoning district or other City standards. The power to vary is limited
to the minimum change necessary to overcome the inequality inherent in the property.
Variances are granted only when the following specific circumstances exist:
1. The change must not constitute a rezone. It must not be for a use not permitted in the district.
2. Special physical conditions must exist on the property which makes ordinary standards or
requirements impossible to meet, or which would cause undue hardship.
3. The special conditions peculiar to the property must not result from actions of the applicant.
4. The variance must not confer a special privilege that is denied to other properties in the same
district.
