§ 16.220.040 REQUIRED FINDINGS.
   In granting a Variance, the Planning Commission must make all of the following findings:
      (1)   That the strict or literal interpretation and application of this Title 16 would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of this Title 16, or would deprive applicants of privileges granted to others in similar circumstances; and
      (2)   That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or the intended development of the property that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone; and
      (3)   That the granting of such Variance will not constitute the granting of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity classified in the same zone; and
      (4)   That the granting of such Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare nor injurious to property or improvements in the zone or neighborhood in which the property is located; and
      (5)   That the granting of such Variance will not create any inconsistency with any objective contained in the General Plan.
