The grant of variance will be generally consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives, and policies of the Aspen Area Community Plan and Chapter 26 of the Aspen Municipal Code. 4. The grant of variance is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the parcel, building or structure. 5. The literal interpretation and enforcement of the terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen Municipal Code would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other parcels in the same zone district, and would cause the applicant unnecessary hardship or practical difficulty. In determining that the applicant's rights would be deprived absent a variance, the Board considered certain special conditions and circumstances which are unique to the parcel, building or structure, which are not applicable to other parcels, structures or buildings in the same zone district and which do not result from the actions of the applicant. Section 2. Variance Granted. The Board of Adjustment does hereby grant the applicant the following variance from the terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen Municipal Code by a 4 to 0 vote: A one (1) foot 10 3/8 (10 3/8) inch front yard setback variance for the reconstruction of existing above-grade decks. The decks shall be configured in a straight line.
