Committee Detail
| Name: | TOWN Zoning Board of Appeals |

Meetings are held on the first and third Monday of the month at 7:30pm at the Town Hall, unless otherwise posted. Public Hearings are held at 7:45pm.

In making its decisions, the ZBA interprets the Town Zoning Code and evaluates the benefit an applicant would realize if they were to be granted a variance against any impacts that the Town might realize as a result of the variance.
The ZBA can grant use variances to allow the use of land for a purpose that is otherwise not allowed or is prohibited by zoning regulations. Use variances are granted very infrequently.
The ZBA can also grant area variances to reduce required setback distances if an applicant can demonstrate suitable hardship. While the number of area variances granted by the ZBA each year is quite small, it is the most frequently requested variance coming before the board.
Applications must be received in the Planning & Zoning office at least two (2) weeks prior to a meeting date to be included on the agenda.
