Washington Street, Mooresville, Indiana This matter came before the Mooresville Board of Zoning Appeals on Wednesday, October 15, 1986, at the regularly schedoled meeting date and ~me. The petition requested a variance to allow petitioners to open a used furniture and antique business in their basement. The Mooresvil] e Board of Zoning Appeals, having he~rd evidence on the above captioned petition now makes the following findings of fact pursuant to Indiana Code 3-7-4-918.5: 1 That the approval would not be ~njurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the cormnunity since this use would create a high volume of tr~ffJce. 2. That the use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variaoce would not be affected in a substamtially adverse manner doe to this being located near other business uses and in somewbat of a transition location f~om business to residential. 3. That the need for the variance arises from a condition peculiar to the property due to its location being in a transition neigbborhood from business to residential. 4. That the strict applieation of the terms of the zoning ordinance would constitute an unnecessary hardship if applied to the property for which the variance is sought ip that due to its location next to the bus~ness-type of use and with the open field behind it this would place some unreasonable restrictions on the use of the property. 5. That the approval doe£ not interfere substantially with the comprehensive plan due to its location i~ the transition area betweep business and residential uses. Warren Franklin, Secretary Dated:
