B. That the variance will not be in conflict with the purpose and intent of these zoning regulations, the general plan, or any applicable specific plan;
C. That the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege—an entitlement inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning; and
