2. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated the granting of the Variation will not:
a. Impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property as petitioner has demonstrated that the proposed detached garage is located between the existing home and Forest Preserve property and will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has demonstrated that the detached garage height will not diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County and will be an added benefit to the surrounding area.
d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has demonstrated that the detached garage is located between the existing home and Forest Preserve property on a dead-end street, and that the detached garage will not unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways.
