BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS

are located at

The BZA has three primary areas of responsibility:

To hear and decide appeals where it is alleged there is an error in any order, requirement, decision, or determination of the Zoning Coordinator.
To authorize variances from the rules and regulations of the Zoning Code where the applicant has demonstrated that the standards for a variance can be met.
To review conditional uses according to the standards outlined in the Zoning Code.

The BZA is a quasi-judicial body and all appeals of its decisions are made to the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas.
