In determining whether to grant or deny the application for a variance exceeding forty-eight hours, the NCO shall hold a public hearing after giving a ten-day written notice to all property owners within three hundred feet of the proposed variance site. The NCO shall balance the hardship on the applicant, community and other persons of granting or denying the variance against the adverse impact on the health, safety and welfare of persons affected, the adverse impact on property affected, and any other adverse impacts on granting or denying the variance.
(Ord. 715-2002).
