In no case shall the zoning regulations be changed so as to increase the average density of population or cover of the land with buildings above that which is permitted in the district wherein such lands lie.

The Planning Board shall have the power, in approving site plans providing for subdivision of the initial site in an OB1 District, to vary the requirements of the chapter as to yard setbacks, minimum interior yard dimensions and total gross floor area and required parking, provided that the Planning Board shall determine and find that such changes are in the public interest and in compliance with the general purpose and intent of this chapter and ensure compatibility with uses on adjoining properties.
