Section 2: That the City Council finds that in granting the reclassification, the following criteria have been proved before this body: A. The proposed uses are compatible with existing uses or existing zoning of property in the environs. B. The trend of development in the general area since the original zoning of the affected property was established supports the proposed use or zoning classification. C. The proposed use or zoning classification is in harmony with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan of the City as viewed in light of any changed conditions since the adoption of the Plan. D. The proposed use or zoning classification promotes the public interest and not solely the interest of the applicant. Section 3: That the City Council finds in granting the conditional use permit, the following criteria have been proved before this body: A. Any adverse impact of types of volumes of traffic flow not otherwise typical in the zoning district has been minimized. B. Any adverse effects of noise, glare, odor, dust, waste disposal, blockage of light or air, or other adverse environmental effects of a type or degree not characteristic of permitted uses in the zoning district, have been appropriately controlled. C. The proposed use will fit harmoniously with the existing natural or man-made character of its surroundings, and with permitted uses in the zoning district. The use will not have undue deleterious effect on the environmental quality, property values, or neighborhood character already existing in the area or normally associated with permitted uses in the district. D. The proposed use will not require existing community facilities or services to a degree disproportionate to that normally expected or permitted uses in the district, nor generate disproportionate demand for new services or facilities, in such a way as to place undue burdens upon existing development in the area. E. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the safety or health of the employees, patrons, or visitors associated with the use nor of the general public in the vicinity. 399(19) '_`age 3 F. The proposed use is in harmony with all other elements of compatibility pertinent to the Conditional Use and its particular location. Section 4: That the City Council finds in granting said variances, the following criteria have been proved before this body: A. Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the property for which the variance is sought and that do not apply generally to other properties in the same zoning district. and these circumstances are not of so general or recurrent a nature as to make it reasonably practical to provide a general regulation to cover them. B. Since a variance will affect the character of its surroundings long after a property changes hands, the special circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical character of the land or buildings for which a variance is sought, such as dimensions, topography or soil conditions. They do not concern any business or activity the present or prospective owner or tenant carries on, or seeks to carry on, therein, nor to the personal, business or fmancial circumstances of such owner or tenant or any other party with interest in the property. C. The special circumstances that are the basis for a variance have not resulted from any act of the applicant or of any other party with interest in the property. D. The strict application of the provisions of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as distinguished from mere inconvenience. E. A variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a substantial property right possessed by other properties in the same zoning district and does not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to other properties. F. The grant of a variance is necessary, not because it will increase the applicant's economic return, although it may have this effect, but because without a variance the applicant will be deprived of any reasonable use or enjoyment of the property. G. The granting of the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor substantially impair environmental quality, property values or public safety or welfare in the vicinity. H. The granting of a variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the city of McHenry Zoning Ordinance and the City of McHenry Comprehensive Plan, as viewed in light of any changed conditions since their adoption. 1. The variance requested is the minimum required to provide the applicant with reasonable use and enjoyment of his property.
