§ 17.550.005 PURPOSE.
The provisions of this Chapter allow for:
A.   Administrative Modification of specific development standards of this Title, when the strict application of those standards creates an unnecessary, involuntarily-created hardship, or unreasonable regulation that makes it impractical to require compliance with the development standards.
B.   Variances from the development standards of this Title only when, because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including location, shape, size, surroundings, topography, or other conditions, the strict application of this Title denies the property owner privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and in identical zoning districts.
C.   Reasonable accommodations from specific development standards of this Title when the strict application of those standards would make it impractical for an individual with a disability to have an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling unit.
