The Zoning Administrator, or Planning Commission upon referral, may approve and/or modify an administrative adjustment application in whole or in part, with or without conditions, if the applicant can demonstrate that the circumstances of the particular case can justify making the following findings.
(A) Zone. The requested adjustment will not interfere with the purpose and intent of the regulations for the zone in which the property is located.
(B) Adjacent property. The approval or conditional approval of the adjustment will not be injurious to adjacent property.
(C) General Plan. The approval or conditional approval of the adjustment will promote the general welfare and will not adversely affect the general plan of the city.
(D) Superior design. The plans for construction and/or development resulting from approval or conditional approval of the adjustment results in a superior design solution which enhances the visual quality, use and function of the site and surrounding area.
(E) Special circumstances. There are special circumstances which reduce parking demand associated with the operation of a use and therefore justify a deviation in the minimum required number of parking stalls.
