Variance Procedure

Requesting a Zoning Variance
Property owners may seek variances from the Zoning Code by following a standardized application process. Variances allow for exceptions to zoning regulations under specific circumstances, and are reviewed to ensure they align with the intent of the City's planning goals.
To begin, applicants must submit materials in accordance with the Variance Request Guidelines, which can be found under the Board of Adjustments section.
