[Amended by Ord. No. 77-3]
These rules, regulations and standards shall be considered the
minimum requirements for the protection of the public health, safety
and welfare of the citizens of the City. Any action taken by the Planning
Board under the terms of this chapter shall give primary consideration
to the above-mentioned matters and to the welfare of the entire community.
However, if the subdivider or his agent can clearly demonstrate that
because of peculiar conditions pertaining to his land the literal
enforcement of one or more of these regulations is impracticable or
will exact undue hardship, the Planning Board may permit such variance
or variances as may be reasonable and within the general purpose and
intent of the rules, regulations and standards established by this
chapter.
The Planning Board may permit a deviation from the final plan if caused by a change of conditions beyond the control of the developer since the date of final approval, provided that the deviation will not substantially alter the character of the development or substantially impair the intent and purpose of the Master Plan and Chapter 380, Zoning.
The Planning Board may, by resolution, promulgate rules and
regulations of procedure for the administration of this chapter not
inconsistent with the provisions hereof.[1]
