(a) For subdivisions or land developments where the Board of Commissioners determines that extraordinary hardships or difficulties may result from strict compliance with these subdivision regulations, and the purposes of these regulations may be served to a greater extent by an alternative proposal, the Board of Commissioners may authorize a waiver of the requirements of these regulations so that substantial justice may be done. Such action shall be consistent with the public interest and with the character of the community.
(b) Exceptions to the provisions of these regulations may be authorized by the Board of Commissioners in cases where a literal enforcement of these regulations would hinder site plans plainly showing special economy, imaginative design or creative use of resources.
