- , u-se of land and the existing use of land . in the vicinity, the number of persons to

tions following a finding that all of the -

cant.
. , 3. The gramting af .the variance will .

- posed subdivision upon traEfic conditions in the vicinity. In granting a variance _

deems desirable or necessary to the
' public interest.

ances from the provisions of this or-
dinance in the case of a"planned unit
development," provided the Council, upon
review and recommendations from the . Planning Committee, shall find that the

- - parcel of land for which a complete, detailed plan has Ibeen submitked showing

ways, sidewallis, landscaping, off-s~treet
