The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a finding of this
Board that:
1 . Special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the

other land, buildings, or structures in the same district.
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would
involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner.
3. Desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the
public good and without nullifying or substantially derogation from the
intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after careful considerations the evidence presented at
the hearing, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The property is located in an SRA designated area.
2. The sign will have directional signage for parking and a space for
promotional messages.
3. The sign is free standing.
4. There was opposition from City Councillors, Kelley, Flynn and
Pakowski.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented
at the hearings, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1. Special conditions exist which especially affect the subject property
and not the district in general.
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would
involve substation hardship to the petitioner.
3. Desirable relief can be granted without substantial detriment to.
public good and without nullifying and substantially derogating from
the intent of the district or purpose of the Ordinance.
