The Zoning Board of Adjustment is a group of citizens appointed by the governing body of the municipality that has the power to grant variances from the local zoning law(s). The board can only grant a variance in accordance with the standards set forth in the Municipal Land Use Law. In all cases before the Zoning Board of Adjustment, it is the applicant’s burden to prove his or her case. In addition, the applicant must demonstrate that the granting of a variance will not substantially harm the public or impair the intent and purpose of the Municipal Zoning Ordinance. The zoning board is a quasi-judicial board. Its purpose is to provide relief from the requirements of the municipal zoning ordinance. A request for relief must be justified by law and the zoning board must make its decisions much as a judge does in court.
