Zoning Board of Appeals

The Zoning Board of Appeals is a seven member board with two alternates. They receive, review and decide on applications for variances, or relief from specific sections of the Zoning Ordinance. Decisions are based on a review of a set list of standards that must be met in order to grant a variance. The Board meets the third Wednesday of each month, if an application has been submitted at 7:30 PM in the Council Chambers. Notices are mailed to all properties within 300 feet of the applicant address and a public hearing is held.

Applications must include the completed application form, a $250 filing fee, a drawing identifying the request and a narrative explaining the request in detail and how the request meets the standards.
