to the property or class of use in the same vicinity and zone.
3. That the requested variance is not necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of
a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, and
denied to the property in question.
4. That no hardship had been demonstrated that the existing sign was not adequate to
properly advertise the use on subj?ct propErty.
5. That colored slides ta!cen of subject property and displayed at the public hearing

signing of the property from either direction, and any increase in the height would in effect
hide th? sign from view of the motorists.
6. That although higher sigr~s had been approved in this general area, compliance with
the sign height requirements shouid be adhered to in order that the aP;thetics of the
: cbmmercial-recreation area does not acquir? the undesirable appearance of recreation areas in
;; other cities.

sign height waivers in the area.
