(1) Failure to grant the variance would result in an extraordinary hardship to the applicant.

(2) The extraordinary hardship to the applicant is specifically related to the property, and is the result of unique conditions such as irregular lot shape, size, or natural features and the application of this chapter, and is not, for example, from deed restrictions or the applicant’s own actions.

(3) The variance is justified to cure a special circumstance and not simply for the economic convenience of the applicant and no other practicable or reasonable alternative exists (see Definitions).

(4) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the critical area, public health, safety, welfare, use or interest; or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity.

(5) The granting of the variance is the minimum necessary to afford relief to accommodate a use allowed under the Comprehensive Plan, CCC Title 31, Zoning Code, CCC Title 33, Clallam County Shoreline Master Program (SMP), CCC Title 35, or other applicable provisions of the Clallam County Code.

(6) The granting of the variance will not materially compromise the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan, CCC Title 31, or be inconsistent with County land use codes or inconsistent with the spirit and intent of this chapter.

(7) A mitigation plan pursuant to this chapter has been submitted and is approved by the review authority for the proposed variance request.
