Probably the best way of thinking however "hardship" is usually meant to 
plead a case where the situation you may have does not fit into the written 
rules. This can happen and is why a zoning board of appeals exists in most 
townships and cities, rarely in the country.

Hardship appeals work both ways, it is a legal term.  Suppose the builder of 
your house places it so that building a garage exceeds the sideline 
regulations.  You can never have have garage for one or two feet of lack of 
forethought.  This would be appealed as a hardship.  Also neighborhoods 
change. Usage changes.  In the last fifty years viewpoints on life have 
changed drastically.

Not a perennial subject, I realize, but a perennial problem for homeowners.  
Common sense should prevail and sometimes does.
