These rules, regulations and standards shall
be considered the minimum requirements for the protection of the public

Any action taken by the governing body and the Land Development Board
for Land Development Board operation 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

pertaining to his land, the literal enforcement of one or more of

Land Development Board and governing body for Land Development Board
operation 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.
