The conference will inform participants about the current legal principles applicable to interpretations, special exceptions, variances, validity appeals, nonconforming uses, curative amendments, subdivision plans, planned developments, miscellaneous procedural problems, and other zoning matters.
Following are some of the issues that will be discussed:
- Is an appeal permissible from a spot zoning decision?
- Must a school district comply with the use regulations of a zoning ordinance?
- What are the necessary criteria for a dimensional variance?
- Does the metropolitan planning commission permit a modification of a planned residential development (PRD) requirement?
- Should/Must you make provisions for PRDs in your ordinance?
- May a zoning hearing board discuss and deliberate issues in private without violating the Sunshine Act?
This conference is designed for zoning officers, planning commission members, council members, realtors, civil engineers, commissioners and supervisors, zoning hearing board members, and all others involved with zoning administration.
