Janet E. Smythe c/o Jose L. Alva VARIANCE FINDINGS 1. Because of the special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location, or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning regulations deprives the { property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification. E The property's unique location, size, shape and surroundings, which consists of approximately 7.4-E acres in an AG 40 zone, containing frontage on two main roads,with 531 feet of frontage on Milton Road, and 473 feet of frontage on Copperopolis Road create the special circumstances applicable to the property. The strict application of the zoning regulation deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other properties under identical zoning classification who have only one main road fronting the properties. Furthermore,due to its size,configuration,and location, the property's unique physical conditions are not applicable to other properties in the area and zone. 2. The granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the property is situated. Due to its unique characteristics, the subject property would enjoy no more than the privileges already enjoyed by properties in adjacent to,in the vicinity of,and in the same zone as the ' subject property. There already exist a 3f acre parcel adjacent to the property's western boundary, and two 3f acre parcels adjacent to the property's eastern boundary. Allowing the variance for the property to create two parcels, as compared to the area exceptions requiring the zoning minimum does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone which govern the parcel property. 3. The Variance will not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise expressly authorized by the zone regulation governing the parcel property. The variance application is for lot size only and would not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise expressly authorized by the regulation governing this parcel of propery
