Many building in the area are as close to streets and variances have been granted for others. CONCLUSION: a. Proven case of unnecessary hardship. b. Variance is necessary to provide right enjoyed by others. c. Variance is not contrary to rights of others or to the public interest. Motion carried. #939.

Ravine and wooded area of approximately 300 acres provide open space to the rear. CONCLUSION: a. Proven case of unnecessary hardship. b. Variance is not contrary to rights of others or the public i n to rn't.
