The Village recognizes that, due to the specific requirements of any given development, inflexible application of the design standards may result in development with excessive paving, stormwater runoff, and a waste of space which could be left as an open space. The Village Council shall have the authority to grant waivers from specific control provisions of the stormwater management standards due to site-specific conditions, but only if the waiver(s) are as restrictive as the Oakland County Standards. All requests for waivers or variances must be provided in writing along with justifications. Alternatives that are consistent with the overall intent of stormwater quantity and quality management may be proposed, subject to the approval of both the Village and, if applicable, the County.
