      (A)   "Reasonable"
         An accommodation will be determined to be reasonable if it would not undermine the legitimate purposes and effects of existing zoning regulations, and if it will not impose significant financial and administrative burdens upon the Town and/or constitute a substantial or fundamental alteration of the Town's ordinance provisions; and
      (B)   "Necessary"
         An accommodation will be determined to be necessary if it would provide direct or meaningful therapeutic amelioration of the affects of the particular disability or handicap, and would afford handicapped or disabled persons equal opportunity to enjoy and use housing in residential districts in the Town.
