Based upon the evidence submitted at the abovesaid hearing this Commission finds <br />and determines as follows: <br />A. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, <br />shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance <br />is found to deprive the subject property of privileges not otherwise at variance with the <br />intent and purpose of the provisions of the Municipal Code; <br />The approval to not require screening of the roof mounted mechanical equipment <br />would not jeopardize the intent of the screening requirements. The building is <br />located adjacent to two other buildings and a reasonable distance from the public <br />right-of--way to the rear to meet the intent of the screening requirements. <br />B. That the granting of a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of one or <br />more substantial property rights; <br />Approval of the variance allows the applicant to utilize the mechanical equipment <br />in an aesthetically appealing manner while providing a comfort cooling system for <br />the building. <br />u <br />1 <br />
