The council shall provide for the method by which its building
or setback regulations shall be enforced and shall provide for a
board of adjustment with powers to modify or vary the regulations,
in specific cases, in order that unwarranted hardships, which
constitute an unreasonable deprivation or use as distinguished from
the mere grant of a privilege, may be avoided, the intended purpose

and public safety protected. If there is a board of zoning
adjustment such board shall be appointed to serve as the board of
adjustment for the building or setback line regulations. Regulations
authorized under the provisions of this section shall not be
adopted, changed or amended until a public hearing has been held
thereon by the commission, public notice of which shall be given in
the manner provided by law. Appeals may be taken from any order,
regulation or action of a board of adjustment as provided in this
section in the manner provided by law for appeals from orders of the
