Variance Criteria S2.12.03 LDC • Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, use or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, uses or buildings in the same zoning district; – NO, parcel was platted for commercial property. 2. The special conditions and circumstances are not self-imposed and do not result from the actions of the applicant. – NO, applicant has the option to design or redesign project to meet code requirement. • Literal interpretation of the provision of the LDC would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the LDC….. – NO, code requires 35’ wide front landscape buffer on specified streets. Good design balances code requirements.

  14. Variance Criteria S2.12.03 LDC 4. Variance is the minimum relief necessary that will make possible the reasonable use of the land or building – NO, need for relief is not demonstrated by information provided. No Technical Site Plan has been submitted. • The granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the LDC and will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare or injurious to other property in the area. - NO, granting the variance is not consistent with code implementation and intent. However, the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, or directly injurious to area.

  15. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning and Land Development Regulation Board: • DENY Application 2922 because the application does not meet any of the variance standards cited in Section 2.12.03(A) of the LDC. Specifically, the finding is that this request does not meet criteria #1,#2,#3,#4, and #5 of S2.12.03 of the City of Palm Coast Land Development Code.
