SECTION 2: In granting said Use Variance, the City Council finds that the requirements
of Table 32(A) of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
1) For reasons fully set forth in the written findings, the strict application of the
provisions of the Zoning Ordinance relating to the use of the buildings or structures,
or the use of the land, would result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the
applicant, as distinguished from mere inconvenience.
2) The property cannot yield a reasonable return if permitted to be used only under
the conditions allowed by the regulations in the Zoning Ordinance for the pertinent
zoning district.
3) Special circumstances, fully described in the written findings, exist that are peculiar
to the property for which the use variance is sought and that they do not apply
generally to other properties in the same zoning district.
4) The granting of the use 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.
5) The granting of a use variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and
intent of the Zoning Ordinance and of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
SECTION 3: All Ordinances or parts thereof in conflict with the terms and provisions
hereof are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict.
SECTION 4: This Ordinance shall be published in pamphlet form by and under the
authority of the corporate authorities of the City of McHenry, McHenry County, Illinois.
