In their interpretation and application, the provisions of these
Regulations shall be held to be the minimum requirements adopted for
the promotion of public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general
welfare. It is not intended by these Regulations to repeal, abrogate,
or annul or in any way to impair or interfere with any existing decisions,
orders, permits or waivers previously adopted, granted or issued under
the Zoning Ordinance in existence heretofore as amended from time
to time and it is not intended by these Regulations to abrogate, annul,
repeal, or in any way to impair or interfere with any existing provisions
of the Building Code of the Town of Stratford or of any ordinance,
rule, regulation or permit which hereafter may be adopted or issued
pursuant to law relating to the use of buildings or premises. Further
it is not intended by these Regulations to abrogate, annul or in any
way to impair or interfere with any easements, covenants or other
agreements between parties; provided, however, that where these Regulations
impose a greater restriction upon the use of buildings or premises
or upon the height of buildings or require larger yards, courts or
other open spaces than are imposed or required by such existing provisions
of law or ordinance, or by such rules, regulations or permits, or
by such easements, covenants or agreements, the provisions of these
Regulations shall control.
Where the requirements of any section or subsection of these
Regulations appear to conflict with the requirements of any other
section or subsection, the requirement imposing the greater restriction
shall apply.
