Subdividing Land with Existing Homes on it

[Thomas Magill]

I am looking for examples of hardship you can claim for subdividing land that does not conform exactly to zoning ordinances. The land is close but does not have the required sq ft. Its under by .2 acres.

I purchased 8 homes on 3 parcels. I need to subdivide the land into 8 individual lots, but need to claim hardship in order to do so. Please let me know if anyone has dealt with this issue before, and what are some examples of the hardship you claimed in order to accomplish this task.

Thank you BP community
