| | Evaluación de circunstancias fuera del control del solicitante (de excepción administrativa) | Explanation:
En los Estados Unidos, el término “hardship” (en realidad “variance hardship”) se refiere a las circunstancias que pueden justificar una excepción administrativa (“variance” en inglés de EEUU) a las disposiciones establecidas en la reglamentación urbanística (“zoning regulation”) del municipio, distrito o región correspondiente. Estas excepciones son a veces necesarias para evitar lo que se conoce como “regulatory taking” (equivalente más o menos a nuestra “expropiación”, aunque no es exactamente lo mismo, quizás mejor “regulación expropiatoria”). La concesión de una “excepción” por parte de las autoridades permite al propietario de un determinado inmueble o finca cumplir con los requisitos que impone la legislación urbanística sin tener que sufrir una expropiación. De esto se trata en tu pregunta, donde un organismo (el “Board”) tiene que hacer un examen de las circunstancias de la solicitud para conceder o no la autorización.
Hay dos tipos de excepciones, la “hardship”, circunstancias que se escapan al control del propietario (topografía, suelo, etc.), y la llamada “special exception”, que es lo contrario.

The term HARDSHIP refers to CIRCUMSTANCES PECULIAR TO THE PARTICULAR PROPERTY. Financial or economic difficulties shall not be considered a hardship where reasonable alternatives for development exist. Actions taken by a property owner that are contrary to these regulations and the consequences of those actions shall not be considered a hardship.

There are two types of variances. Most variance requests are Special Exception Requests. The two types are:
‐ Hardship – these are variances for essentially conditions, usually natural, outside the control of the applicant. These may include topography, floodplain/water feature, soil conditions, conditions associated with height, etc.
‐ Special Exception – these are requests for conditions and circumstances within the control of the applicant. Examples of these include ‐ in most cases ‐ set‐backs, design standards, etc. Special exception variances may only be granted for:
o Minimum building setbacks.
o Maximum building height.
o Minimum lot width.
o Minimum appearance standards for single‐family dwellings.
o Public or private street frontage.
o Automobile parking requirements.
o Zoning buffers and screening.
o Signage.

Most zoning systems have a procedure for granting variances (exceptions to the zoning rules), usually because of some perceived hardship caused by the particular nature of the property in question.
