The Board of Adjustment generally meets at 7:00 p.m. on the second Tuesday of the month. The purpose of this Board is to hear and decide all appeals and matters referred to it under the laws and ordinances of the City. The Board is authorized to overturn decisions of any official or employee of the City where error is alleged and proven in the interpretation or enforcement of the zoning ordinance, grant variances from the strict letter of the zoning ordinance provided that practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship exists and is proven, and render a decision on applications made to the board in those cases where the zoning ordinance specifically provides that the Board shall render a decision on the matter.
It is recommended the Board of Adjustment Rules, which were revised on November 11, 2008, be reviewed prior to submitting an application.
Note: Applicaton deadlines and requirements have changed. Please review the instructions and hearing schedule and deadline forms prior to completing the application. If you have any questions, please contact the City Clerk's Office at 874-7208.
