2. Supported by trend of development. The trend of development in the general area since the original zoning of the affected property was established supports the proposed use or zoning classification.
3. Consistent with comprehensive plan objectives. The proposed use or zoning classification is in harmony with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan of the village as viewed in light of any changed conditions since the adoption of the Plan.
