42.15 VARIANCES - The responsibility for granting variances shall be
as follows:
a. City Council: On all site plans and concept plans requiring review by
the Planning and Zoning Commission and approval by the City
Council, variances to the bufferyards may be granted by the City

c. Variances - At the time of review of any required Concept Plan or Site

shall be limited to granting a variance to no more than fifteen percent
(15%) of the required number of off-street parking spaces.
1. To receive a variance, the applicant must demonstrate one of the

literal enforcement of the regulations will create an unnecessary
hardship or a practical difficulty for the applicant; that the situation
causing the unnecessary hardship or practical difficulty is unique to the
affected property; that the variance will not injure and will be wholly
compatible with the use and permitted development of adjacent
properties; and that the granting of the variance will be in harmony with
the spirit and purpose of this ordinance.

variance of like kind relating to the same project or proposed project
shall be considered or acted upon by the City Council for a period of six
(6) months subsequent to the denial.
