15.72.150 Modifications

The board may modify the application of any of the provisions of a code incorporated by reference into this chapter upon application in writing by a permittee or applicant, or a duly authorized agent of either, when there are practical difficulties in carrying out the strict letter of the code, provided that the spirit of the code is observed, public safety secured, and substantial justice done. Economic hardship or cost of compliance with any provision of this title or any code incorporated by reference into this title is not, by itself, a sufficient ground for such a modification. The particulars of such modifications when granted or allowed and the decision of the board thereon shall be entered upon the minutes of a regular or special meeting of the board, and a copy of the minute order shall be furnished to the applicant or permittee by the clerk. (Ord. 1183 § 2, 2006)

If any provision, part or portion of any of the codes incorporated by reference into this title are inconsistent or in conflict with an express provision or the meaning or intent of this title, then the latter shall prevail and be given effect to the exclusion of the former to the extent required to obviate such inconsistency or conflict. (Ord. 1183 § 2, 2006)
