§ 275-905. Modification of chapter provisions.


Latest version.
  • A. 
    The provisions of this chapter not relating to water quality are intended as minimum standards for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare. The Borough reserves the right to modify or to extend them conditionally in individual cases as may be necessary in the public interest; provided, however, that such variation shall not have the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of this chapter, and that the applicant shows that to the satisfaction of the Borough that the applicable regulation is unreasonable, or will cause undue hardship, or that an alternative proposal will allow for equal or better results. The list of such modifications, along with an explanation of and justification for each modification, shall be included on the plan. This section does not apply during an enforcement action.
    B. 
    In granting waivers/modifications for provisions of this chapter not relating to water quality, the Borough may impose such conditions as will, in its judgment, secure substantially the objectives of the standards and requirements of this chapter.
