'-~-~-nt <br />The applicant is requesting a• <br />variance on the basis that the one <br />(1) lot on County Road "D" has a <br />width of 72 feet rather than the <br />required 75 feet. The applicant <br />has noted that the rationale for <br />-- the variance is that there is ark <br />.existing house on the property which <br />precludes the subdivision of the <br />proposed lots on County Road "D" <br />into lots with 75 feet in width. <br />The hardship as indicated by the <br />applicant would be the result of <br />two (2) lots excessive in size <br />rather than the three (3) as <br />proposed. In addition, the <br />applicant states that the situation <br />is somewhat unique by the fact that <br />the property contains an existing <br />single family home. <br />
