(A) Interpretation. In the interpretation and application the provisions of these regulations shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the promotion of the public health, safety and general welfare.
(B) Conflict with public and private provisions.
(1) Public provisions. These regulations are not intended to interfere with, abrogate or annul any other ordinance, rule or regulation, statute or other provision of law. Where any provision of these regulations imposes restrictions different from those imposed by any other provision of these regulations or any other ordinance, rule or regulation or other provision of law, those provisions which are more restrictive or impose higher standards shall control.
(2) Private provisions. These regulations are not intended to abrogate any easement, covenant or any other private agreement or restriction, provided that where the provisions of these regulations are more restrictive or impose higher standards or regulations than the easement, covenant or other private agreement or restriction, the requirements of these regulations shall govern. Where the provisions of the easement, covenant or private agreement or restriction impose duties and obligations more restrictive, or higher standards than the requirements of these regulations, or the determinations of the Commission in enforcing these regulations, and those private provisions are not inconsistent with these regulations or determinations thereunder, then the private provisions shall be operative and supplemental to these regulations and determinations made thereunder. Private provisions can only be enforced privately unless a public agency such as the City Council or City Advisory Plan Commission has been made a party to those agreements.
