-2- <br /> <br />bors could agree upon and which would, in fact, be enforced by the Board, <br />including mandatory inspections, this might remove the opposition.

With regards to the third requirement that the strict application <br />of the terms of the zoning ordinance will result in practical difficulties in the <br /> <br /> <br />
