Any person desiring to erect any structure or increase the height of any structure, or permit the growth of any tree or use his property not in accordance with the regulations prescribed in this article may apply to the zoning administrator for a variance therefrom. Such variance shall be allowed where a literal application or enforcement of the regulations prescribed by this article would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship and the relief granted would not be contrary to the public interest but would do substantial justice and be in accordance with the spirit of this article; provided, however, that any variance may be subject to such reasonable conditions and restrictions as the zoning administrator may deem necessary.
