Board of Adjustment

The Board of Adjustment has the power to hear and decide appeals if it is alleged there is error in any order, requirement, decision, or determination made by an administrative official in the enforcement of any provision of the Zoning Ordinance. Upon appeal, the Board hears and decides special exceptions to the terms of the Zoning Ordinance upon which the Board is required to pass, subject to specific conditions in the Ordinance. Upon appeal, the Board authorizes, in specific cases, variances from the terms of the Zoning Ordinance that will not be contrary to the public interest, if, due to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions of the Ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship and so that the spirit of the Ordinance is observed and substantial justice done.

Appointment, Board Membership and Qualifications:
