Criteria 1: Special conditions or circumstances are present which are peculiar to the land or structures involved, which are not applicable to other lands or structures in the same land use or zoning district. Findings: Subject property currently has double frontage access. With the proposed build, the double frontage will be eliminated, eliminating a secondary traffic conflict point. Criteria 2: The special conditions or circumstances have not been caused by actions of the applicant in such conditions and circumstances do not merely constitute— that's a fun word— pecuniary— we're gonna try— we're gonna go with it— hardship or inconvenience.
