The area to be credited to the 75-250'zone for hardcover calculation purposes is 1,970 s.f.,yielding a tota175-250'area of 11,160 s.f. for calculation purposes. The . resultant hazdcover allowance of 25%would therefore be 2,790 s.f.,the equivalent of an allowance of 30.36%hardcover in the 75-250'zone. 5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations'of the Planning Commission,reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the public, and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 6. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district;that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions,light,air nor pose a fire hazard • or other danger to neighboring property;would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial properry right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
