Variances

When presented under extenuating circumstances certain codes and ordinances may be deferred in a ruling. This form is used to signify such a circumstance and apply for a deviation in zoning ruling.

The applicant will be required to attend a Regular Session meeting with the Planning Commission upon complete submittal of the variance application, which includes the following:

1. Completed Application
2. Recorded Plat of the subject property
3. Documentation of Hardship and any other documentation that adequately supports the request
4. A payment of $100 for the application fee

Upon application submittal, the applicant will be provided with the Regular Session meeting date, time, and location. Deadline for submittal is the Wednesday before the last Monday of the month. See the Planning Commission webpage for the Planning Commission Calendar. 

For Land Use variances, please contact the Planning Office for a pre-application meeting as the requirements, processing, and procedures differ from standard code section variances.
