(a) Borough Council may grant a modification of the requirements of one or more provisions of this Subdivision and Land Development Code if the literal enforcement would exact undue hardship because of peculiar conditions pertaining to the land in question, provided that such modification will not be contrary to the public interest, and that the purposes and intent of this Code are observed. Such modifications may be recommended by the Planning Commission in the written comments following their review as outlined in Chapter 1286.
(b) Any request for a modification shall be in writing and shall accompany and be a part of the application for development. The request shall state in full the grounds and facts of unreasonableness or hardship on which the request is based, the provision or provisions of the ordinance involved, and the minimum modification necessary.
(c) In granting modifications, Borough Council may impose such conditions, acceptable to the applicant, as will, in its judgment, secure substantially the objectives of the standards and requirements so modified.
(d) The Borough shall keep a written record of all actions on all requests for modifications.
