Board of Adjustments

The Board of Adjustment (BOA) is a quasi-judicial body that rules on variances, exceptions, and appeals to the Zoning Ordinance. The City Council has no review authority over decisions of the Board of Adjustments.

This Board requires that a quorum (4 of the 5 members) be present to act upon any variance request. The board by majority vote shall adopt rules in accordance with any ordinance adopted under this subchapter. It takes four (4) concurring votes of the members to approve a variance.
