"The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is necessary <br /> to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. <br /> The difficulty of placement of a screen porch on this lot is the minimal distance between the rear <br /> setback and the home. Locating a screen porch anywhere along the rear of the home other than <br /> the proposed location effectively divides the already compromised size of the usable rear yard <br /> into two even smaller usable yards. The proposed location preserves what back yard does exist <br /> as a contiguous area promoting the normal rear yard recreational activities expected from <br /> owning a '/Z+ acre property. The proposed location also preserves one single line of sight view of <br /> the rear yard from the interior of the home and from the porch itself. These single lines of sight <br /> are critical to monitor the safety of the owners' youngest family members. If any one of the three <br /> identified special conditions identified above did not exist a setback variance would not be <br /> necessary to alleviate the demonstrated difficulty. <br /> Vol I II <br /> 11 1,4 <br /> // <br /> II 11 II <br /> f lll. : I I A tl� <br />
