(A) In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this chapter shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the promotion of the public health, safety and general welfare. Where the conditions imposed by any provisions of this chapter upon the subdivision of land are either more restrictive or less restrictive than comparable conditions imposed by any other provisions of this chapter or of any other applicable law, ordinance, resolution, rule or regulation of any kind, the regulations which are more restrictive and impose higher standards or requirements shall govern.
(B) This chapter is not intended to abrogate any easement, covenant or any other private agreement, provided that where the regulations of this chapter are more restrictive or impose higher standards or regulations than such easements, covenant or other private agreement, the requirements of this chapter shall govern. A subdivision of land which was not lawfully existing at the time of the adoption hereof shall not be made lawful solely by reason of the adoption of this chapter, and to the extent that said subdivision of land is in conflict in any manner with the requirements of this chapter, said subdivision of land remains unlawful hereunder.
