for 194 sq. ft which is 7.6% increase).

B. That petitioner testified that the while the subject property is a separate parcel and has

would allow for an accessible home to serve as the dwelling for his family, including his

self, wife, children, and his in-laws.

D. That petitioner testified that he requires the additional 7.6% square footage for the proposed

home as they require additional space for elderly care in the proposed ranch home.

E. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated sufficient evidence

for a practical difficulty and particular hardship, as petitioner indicated that as the proposed

single-family home will be a ranch home, they require an additional 194 sq. ft. to allow space

for elderly care and accessibility of his in-laws, and that the additional square footage is less

than 10% over what is permitted on the subject property.

STANDARDS FOR VARIATIONS:

1. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated that the granting of

the Variation is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance,

and will not be injurious to the neighborhood, detrimental to the public welfare, or in conflict

demonstrated that they will receive a building permit for the proposed single-family

home, and that it will be built pursuant to the current building codes.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed single-family home will be an added benefit to the

neighborhood and will not diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the

County.

d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed single-family home will not unduly increase traffic

congestion in the public streets and highways.

e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has

flood damages to adjacent property.
