Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the <br /> property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control? <br /> 2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variances, if granted, will not alter the <br /> essential character of the neighborhood? <br /> 3. If the Planning Commission concludes that the variances as requested or in some <br /> other manner or configuration are justified, does the Commission find it necessary <br /> to impose conditions in order to mitigate the impacts created by the granting of the <br /> variances? <br /> 4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application? <br /> Staff Recommendation <br /> If Planning Commission determines that the practical difficulties test is met and the variances are <br /> justified, then a recommendation for approval may be in order. If Planning Commission finds <br /> that the practical difficulties test is not met for one or both variances, a recommendation for <br /> denial, or tabling for revisions, may be appropriate. Options for action include: <br /> 1) Recommend approval (with or without specific conditions). <br /> 2) Recommend denial, stating reasons. <br /> 3) Table for further information or revisions — specify what information or changes are <br /> desired. <br /> 4) Other. <br />
