A Zoning Board of Adjustment is established in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 211 of the Local Government Code.
The Zoning Board of Adjustment may:
- Hear and decide an appeal that alleges error in an order, requirement, decision, or determination made
by an administrative official in the enforcement of state law regarding zoning or this Ordinance;
- Hear and decide Special Exceptions to the terms of a Zoning Ordinance when the Ordinance requires the Zoning Board of Adjustment to do so;
- Authorize in specific cases a variance from the terms of a Zoning Ordinance if the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the Zoning Ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of the Ordinance is observed and substantial justice is done; and
- Hear and decide other matters authorized by an Ordinance adopted under state law.
