The appeal shall be in writing and shall be filed with the town council for placement on the council's agenda. The appeal shall clearly specify what adjustments are being requested, reasons such adjustments are being requested, reasons why such adjustments are warranted, and shall be accompanied with such supplemental data as is deemed necessary to substantiate the adjustment. The council may approve, modify, or deny the requested adjustment, based upon protection of public interest, preservation of the intent of this article, and possible unreasonable and unnecessary hardships involved in this case.
