The board of adjustment may allow a departure from the terms of the development standards set forth in this title where such departure will not be contrary to the public interest, and where, owing to conditions peculiar to the property because of its size, shape or topography, and not as a result of the action of the applicant, the literal enforcement of this title would deprive the owner of the reasonable use of the land and/or building involved.
