The Zoning Board of Adjustment is authorized to hear appeals from decisions or determinations made by an administrative official in administrating provisions in the Zoning Ordinance.
While the administrative officials must apply the ordinance as it is written and cannot waive any provisions. The Board of Adjustment may grant use or area variances, where justified, but cannot amend the Zoning Ordinance or Zoning Map. In addition to the authority to grant variances, the Board of Adjustment has the authority to act on Appeals from Administrative Decisions, Special Exceptions and Equitable Waivers of Dimensional Requirements.
The Zoning Board of Adjustment regularly meets once a month, on the 1st Tuesday at 7:00 PM to review and vote on various applications. Please contact the Planning and Zoning Director for information on and the procedure for submission of applications. Meeting notices are posted at the Town Hall and Town Clerk’s Office, and published in the Concord Monitor a minimum of 5 days prior to each meeting. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend all meetings.
