§ 13-7. Variances.

Any person desiring to erect or increase the height of any structure, or to permit the growth of any tree, in a manner not conforming to the airport approach protection regulations as herein established, or to establish the right to do so may apply to the Town Manager for a variance from the regulations applicable to his property. Such variance may be allowed where a literal application or enforcement of such regulation would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship and the relief granted would not be contrary to public interest. Any permit or variance granted under this section shall be conditioned as to require the owner of the structure or tree to permit the Barnstable Municipal Airport at its own expense to install, operate and maintain suitable obstruction markings or obstruction lights thereon.
