It is not intended to be used as an alternative to the procedures set forth in N.J.A.C. 7:50-4, Part V which are designed to provide relief of particular hardships and to satisfy compelling public needs, unless doing so would be of benefit to the Pinelands by furthering the intent of the Pinelands Protection Act and the Federal Act. Neither is it intended to be used to confer special privileges or rights as a means of solving the economic, competitive or other interests of particular individuals or as means of providing a specific benefit to a particular use or class of uses, except in cases where such changes would be of benefit to the Pinelands by furthering the intent of the Pinelands Protection Act and the Federal Act. The procedures established by this subchapter are designed to maximize public participation in the amendment process.
