English term or phrase: variance
"XX submitted an application for a variance to do work this fall at YY after learning it had failed its health risk assessment and that permitting would be delayed. XX applied for a variance to enable them to operate at YY without a permit."

Variación a la ley?
Excepción a la ley?

What do you think?
Thank you.

Why not "permiso"?

"permiso para desviarse de las ordenanzas" o "permiso para una excepción"


Explanation:
This is a suggestion since it seems to me that a variance in itself is permission to do something that is not otherwise allowed.

variance: modificación...de lo estipulado, pactado, acordado, etc.


Explanation:
El término ¨variance¨ se refiere más bien a discrepancia, oposición o disidencia.

El verbo sería más acertado en este contexto para referirse a una modificación de lo acordado.

Ej: The Court of Appeal varied an asset-freezing injunction granted by the trial judge.
