ARTICLE I. IN GENERAL

Sec. 24.1-111. Conflicting requirements.

(a) Whenever the regulations made under authority of this chapter require a greater width or size of yards, courts, or other open spaces, require a lower height of building or fewer number of stories, require a greater percentage of a lot to be left unoccupied, or impose other higher or more restrictive standards than are required in any other statute or local ordinance or regulations, the provisions of the regulations made under authority of this chapter shall govern.

(b) Whenever the provisions of any other statute or local ordinance or regulation require a greater width or size of yards, courts, or other open spaces, require a lower height of building or fewer number of stories, require a greater percentage of a lot to be left unoccupied, or impose other higher or more restrictive standards than are required by the regulations made under authority of this chapter, the provisions of such statute or local ordinance or regulation shall govern unless the zoning administrator shall determine, in writing, that such application was unintended or would be contrary to the goals and objectives of the county as found in the comprehensive plan.

(c) Whenever two or more of any of the provisions established by this chapter are found to be in conflict, the zoning administrator shall determine which provision shall govern. The SI (metric) unit "equivalents" provided herein shall not be deemed to be more restrictive for the purposes of this section.
