In interpreting and applying the provisions of this title, the provisions and standards contained herein shall be deemed to be the minimum standards or requirements with which compliance is essential to the permitted uses, and shall not be construed as limiting the legislative authority of the city council to further restrict permissive uses or to withhold or revoke permits for uses where, notwithstanding the existence of the minimum standards set forth in this title, the promotion or protection of the public health, morals, safety and welfare bears a substantial relation to such withholding, denial or revocation of permits or uses.
