Economic considerations alone shall not constitute a hardship if <br /> reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the Ordinance. <br /> (1) What are the unique circumstances of the parcel size, shape, topography or other <br /> characteristics that make strict interpretation of the Ordinance impractical? <br /> (2) How is granting this variance consistent with the intent of the City of Pequot Lakes Land Use <br /> or Subdivision Ordinance? <br /> (3) How will reasonable use of the parcel be deprived if the variance is not granted? <br /> (4) What other options, either conforming or non-conforning, have been considered and why <br /> were those options not chosen? <br /> Inc () 'T hz <br /> (5) Describe the impact on the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity.
