6.6 Varianrs;s. The restrictions applicable to Lots as specified in Article IV of this Declaration are intended for the benefit of all Property Owners. The Declarant, however, acknowledges the exceptional conditions of a particular Lot may create peculiar and practical difficulties mitigating against the strict enforcement of a provision contained in Article IV. In the event an Owner believes that such exceptional conditions on a Lot create a hardship or special situation, an Application for Variance may be made by an Owner to the Architectural Control Committee in accordance with Paragraph 3.3 of this Declaration. An Application of Variance shall state on the Application the reasons for allowing the variance, including: (a) that there are special circumstances or conditions affecting the Lot such that the strict application of a provision of Article IV would deprive the Owner of the reasonable use of the Lot; and (b) the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the Owner; and (c) the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other Owners of Lots subject to the Declaration; and (d) that the issuance of the variance will not have an adverse effect upon the health, welfare and safety of the Owners benefited by this Declaration. (e) The variance must comply with city ordinance, In considering a request for a variance from the strict application of Article IV of this Declaration, the Committee shall make a finding showing that all of the foregoing conditions exist, and the Committee may impose any reasonable condition in the granting of such variance in order to protect other Lots and Owners. 11
