The Planning Commission may impose conditions and/or require guarantees for the variance to ensure compliance and to prevent adverse or detrimental impacts to the surrounding neighborhood. Variances shall be granted only when the Planning Commission determines that the proposed development or activity complies with all of the following findings.
(A) Special circumstances. There are special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, that do not generally apply to other properties in the same district.
(B) Similar privileges. The strict application of this chapter deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and other identical zoning classification.
(C) Consistent privileges. The granting of the variance does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the property is situated.
