- Hearing appeals: The ZBA hears appeals from decisions made by building inspectors, zoning enforcement officers, and other officials who enforce zoning or issue permits.
- Interpreting zoning law: The ZBA interprets the village’s zoning code and ensures its validity.
- Granting variances: The ZBA can grant variances to allow for exceptions to zoning regulations. For example, an area variance allows for deviations from dimensional specifications, while a use variance allows for relief from use restrictions.
- Authorizing special permits: The ZBA can authorize special use permits.
- Granting permission for temporary uses: The ZBA can grant permission for temporary uses.
