Section 1.6   Conflict or Inconsistency with Other Laws, Covenants, or Deed Restrictions
   (A)   This Ordinance is not intended to abrogate any other law, ordinance, regulation, or permit. However, where conditions, standards, or requirements imposed by any provision of this Ordinance are either more restrictive or less restrictive than comparable standards imposed by any other law, ordinance, or regulation, the provisions which are more restrictive or which impose higher standards or requirements shall govern. For example, wherever the provisions of this Ordinance require a greater width or size of setbacks or buffers, a lower height of building, a lesser number of stories, or a greater percentage of lot to be left unoccupied, or impose other standards which are higher than those set forth in another statute, ordinance, or regulation, then the provisions of this Ordinance shall govern. By further example, wherever the provisions of any other statute, ordinance, or regulation require a greater width or size of setbacks or buffers, a lower height of building, a lesser number of stories, or a greater percentage of the lot to be left unoccupied, or impose other standards which are higher than those set forth in this Ordinance, then the provisions of such statute, ordinance, or regulation shall govern;
   (B)   This Ordinance is not intended to abrogate any easement, covenant, or other private agreement. However, where the regulations of this Ordinance are more restrictive or impose higher standards or requirements than such easement, covenant, or other private agreement, then the requirements of this Ordinance shall govern. Nothing in this Ordinance shall modify or repeal any private covenant or deed restriction, but such covenant or restriction shall not excuse any failure to comply with this Ordinance.
