Zoning Board of Appeals

Zoning Board of Appeals is a seven-member board that meets the first Thursday of each month (December meeting always the first Wednesday) at 7:30 p.m. Positions are filled by Council appointment for three-year terms. Board members must be Village residents.

The ZBA is a quasi-judicial board that exercises three basic functions: 1) Interpreting the ordinance (text and map); 2) Deciding the appeals of administrative decisions. and 3) Granting variances (use and non-use).  Attendance at planning and zoning seminars is encouraged for members, at Village expense. A knowledge of the Zoning Ordinance and State Enabling Act would be expected to allow board members to review dimensional and use variance requests and interpretations of the zoning ordinance.
