In review of an application, the Planning Commissioner or his/her designee shall determine whether the project is eligible to receive incentives as outlined herein.

E. 

A project deemed by the Planning Commissioner or his/her designee to meet the intent of this section shall have an administrative review by said Commissioner or his designee.

F. 

If the maximum building size allowable under these standards is less than allowable by the yield map, the applicant may petition the Planning Board to relax this standard by a maximum of 10%, and the Planning Board is herein empowered and authorized to relax said standard up to said maximum upon a finding that it is the minimum amount necessary to permit the alternative development.
