That there have been exeeptional or extraordinary eircumstanees or conditions applying to the subjeet property or as to the intended use thereof that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity or zone. Pa Finding: All of the lots in the vicinity of this lot have viexs of Puget Sound. The viex from this lot as xell as the lot i�ediately to the south is in the northwesterly direation. In order not to block the view of the house to the south, this house needs to be located as close as possible to Harbor lana. In addition, even though the lot is 100 feet x 400 feet, only about one-third of sueh area is actually "buildable" in that the terrain drops dramatically into a gully. To take advantage of the vieW and to build a home that "conforms" to the terrain, it is necessary to build the home as delineated on the attached plot plan. Canclusion: There are exceptional and extraordinary circumatances and conditions applying to the praperty that do not generally. That sueh variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the appellant possessed by the owners of other properties in the same vicinity or zone. Find3ng: The varianee is necessary to allox construction of a home that takes advantagA of the besutiful view. In addition, the varianae is necesssry in order to protact and/or not bloek the view of the property oNners o�rning the adjacent lot to the south. Because the viea is to the northaest, the home if "pushed to the west^ would block their view. Conelusion: The varianee is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a property right possessed by other ormers in the same vicinity.
