5. 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 �pplicant, but is
necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is
necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the appli-
cant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the �
Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
6. The City Council. finds that granting a conditional use permit
- to the applicant for the proposed regrading and tree removal
. would not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare
of the public, nor will it depreciate surrounding property values
and the level of use of the property limited by the pertinent
sections for non-c�onforming uses within the Zoning Code and
Comprehensive Plan of the City. .
