(A) The purpose of the variance is to modify the strict application of the specific requirements set out in each zoning district in conditions where such strict application would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship depriving an owner of the reasonable use of his land.
(B) The variance shall be used only where necessary to overcome some condition which prevents an owner from using his or her lot as this chapter intended.
