EXHIBIT B
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. The requested variation will have no impact to the Village as a whole and the
impact to the adjacent properties will be negligible, since the property
already had a curb cut and driveway with access from Freehauf Street.
2. The variation request will not injure the public health, safety and general
welfare because the new driveway will be required to be constructed in
accordance with all current Village standards.
3. The plight of the owner is due to unique circumstances because the previous
home on the lot had a driveway with access from Freehauf Street and the
new home's garage doors do not line up with the existing curb cut.
