Any applicant proposing a variance to the standards prescribed in this chapter shall have the right to apply for a variance, which shall be classified as either an area variance or use variance, pursuant to the Zoning Law[1] or any successor rules, regulations or statutes.
A. 
Stay the review process. Whenever a particular application requires a variance, the designated approval authority may, at its discretion and upon agreement with the applicant, stay the review process without the necessity of disapproving the application and requiring its resubmission.
