General Residence District wherein this property is located; and

at said hearing and is of the opinion that said variation should
• be granted on certain conditions; and

use will be in the basement of the premises without any signs or
other identification and will be operated solely by Mary L. Bryant;
and
WHEREAS, there are practical difficulties and particular
hardship justifying the variation by reason of the fact that
Edward J. Bryant is disabled and unable to be gainfully employed,

basement; and

of the owner is due to unique circumstances relating to her
professional activity and the age and physical condition of her
husband; and
