(A) No variance in any specific case shall be made by the Council without a hearing by the Zoning Board of Appeals as required herein nor without a report thereof having been made by the Board to the Council, and every such report shall be accompanied by a finding of fact specifying the reasons for the report.
(B) Upon the report of the Zoning Board of Appeals, the Council, without further public hearing, may adopt or deny any proposed variation or may refer the report back of the Board for further consideration. Any proposed variation which fails to receive the approval of four members of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall not be passed except by the favorable vote of three-fourths of all elected members of the Council. In making any variances, the Council shall be governed by the same considerations and restrictions as the variations in particular instances under § 33.062.
