Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by other feasible means. Identify what alternatives to the variance have been explored (alternative designs, attempts to purchase land, etc.) and why they are not feasible. Given the current pandemic, and the need for the applicant to work from home to a much larger degree, the need for a home office has become very necessary. The current layout of the existing home does not offer such a space, therefore the applicants wish to make use of the space above the proposed two-car garage tor that purpose. 2. Whether granting the variance will produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. Granting the variance will not create a detriment to nearby properties or an undesirable change in the neighborhood character for the following reasons: Granting the requested variance will not produce an undesireable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties.
