If water from the city Municipal Water System is not available to particular premises within the city, or for any other reason of an emergency or hardship nature under particular circumstances deemed adequate after hearing, any provisions of this subchapter should equitably be waived, then the Board of Commissioners may grant variances from the particular provisions of the subchapter as to particular premises, either temporary or permanent, in order to alleviate such hardship, emergency or inequity. Application for such variance shall be made in writing, and unless made a part of an original application hereunder, shall be accompanied by the same fee as for drilling or operation of a well. The Board of Commissioners may, at its election, refer such application to the city staff for study and recommendation.
