(a) The following regulations shall govern the granting of variances:
(1) Where the administrative authority finds that extraordinary and unnecessary hardship may result from strict compliance with these Regulations, due to exceptional topographic or other physical conditions, it may vary the Regulations so as to relieve such hardship, provided that such relief may be granted without detriment to the public interest and without impairing the intent and purpose of these Regulations or the desirable development of the neighborhood and community. Such variations shall not have the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of these Regulations, the Comprehensive Development Plan or the Zoning Code.
(2) In granting variances or modifications, the Planning Commission may require such conditions as will, in its judgment, substantially secure the objective of the standards or requirements so varied or modified.
(b) Reference should be made to Subdivision Appendix VII, Form 7, following the text of Chapter 1250, for a sample application for subdivision variance.
