The Zoning Hearing Board is a quasi-judicial board that is appointed by the Board of Supervisors but conducts its deliberations independently of the Board of Supervisors.  

 

The Zoning Hearing Board’s role is to consider appeals from administrative interpretations made by the Zoning Officer of the Zoning Code.

​

The Zoning Officer acts as the liaison with the Zoning Hearing Board. 

​

The group meets on an as needed basis at 7:00 p.m. in a public session.

​

Archived Zoning Board agendas and minutes can be requested from the Zoning Hearing Board Solicitor's office.
