zoning variance

Read a random definition: nominate

A quick definition of zoning variance:

A zoning variance is a request made by a property owner to deviate from the rules and regulations set by the local government for land use in a particular area. This means that the property owner is asking for permission to use their land in a way that is not typically allowed by the zoning laws. For example, if the zoning laws in a particular area only allow for residential use, a property owner may request a zoning variance to allow for commercial use of their property. The decision to grant a zoning variance is made by the local government and is based on factors such as the impact on the surrounding community and whether the variance is in line with the overall goals of the zoning laws.

A more thorough explanation:

A zoning variance is a request made by a property owner to deviate from the existing zoning regulations for their property. It is a legal process that allows property owners to use their land in a way that is not typically allowed by the zoning laws.

For example, if a property owner wants to build a structure that is taller than the maximum height allowed by the zoning laws, they can apply for a zoning variance. If the variance is granted, the property owner can build the taller structure.

Another example is if a property owner wants to use their property for a commercial purpose in an area that is zoned for residential use. They can apply for a zoning variance to allow the commercial use of the property.

Zoning variances are granted on a case-by-case basis and are subject to certain conditions and restrictions. They are typically granted if the property owner can demonstrate that the variance will not have a negative impact on the surrounding properties or the community as a whole.
