Except as to matters governed by these Subdivision Regulations (as to which matters a deviation may be granted only under the circumstances and in accordance with the procedure therein provided), Council may authorize a deviation from the substantive requirements of these Regulations when, in its opinion, undue hardship due to topographical conditions or other conditions peculiar to the site of a proposed subdivision may result from strict compliance. Such deviation shall observe the spirit of these Regulations, secure the public safety and welfare and do substantial justice. An application for a deviation shall be submitted to the Clerk-Treasurer in writing by the person submitting the preliminary plat of the subdivision when the preliminary plat is submitted to the City Clerk. such application shall state fully the grounds for the application and the facts relied upon by the applicant. The granting or denial of such application shall be shown in the records of Council.
