(2)
Unique condition. That the conditions described in Subsection C(1) are unique, exceptional, extraordinary or unusual circumstances applying only or primarily to the property under consideration and are not of such a general or recurrent nature elsewhere in the same zoning district as to suggest or establish the basis for ordinance changes or amendments or of having that effect if relied upon as the basis for granting a variance.
(3)
Conditions not self-created. That the condition creating
the hardship or difficulty was not caused by the petitioner nor by
any person still having an interest in the property.

Public interest. That in granting the variance there
