The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties. a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the official controls; The request to permit the additions to the home on the substandard lot, in the proposed location within the setbacks, appears to be somewhat reasonable as the property's reduced size and orientation with respect to the dual frontage lakeshore creates difficulties.
