November 28, 2024 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS (BZA)
The City of Anderson Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) has the authority to hear administrative reviews, variances and special exceptions.
Administrative Review
The Board can hear and decide appeals where it is alleged the Zoning Administrator erred in an order, requirement, decision or determination. In such cases, the Board may reverse or affirm, wholly or in part, the Zoning Administrator’s actions. The Board has all the powers of the Zoning Administrator in such cases and may direct the issuance of a permit.
Variances
The Board has the power to hear and decide appeals for variances when strict application of the City of Anderson Zoning Ordinance would cause an unnecessary hardship. The Board may grant a variance for an unnecessary hardship if it makes and explains in writing all of the following findings:
- Extraordinary Conditions
There are extraordinary and exceptional conditions pertaining to the particular piece of property. Extraordinary conditions could exist due to topography, street widening or other conditions which make it difficult or impossible to make an economically feasible use of the property. - Other Property
These conditions do not generally apply to other property in the vicinity. - Utilization
Because of these conditions, the application of the ordinance to a particular piece of property would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the utilization of the property. - Detriment
The authorization of a variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property or the public good, and the character of the district will not be harmed by granting of the variance.
Special Exceptions
The Board of Zoning Appeals can permit uses by Special Exception if the terms and conditions described in the Zoning Ordinance are met. The Zoning Ordinance must include the standards and conditions for the Board to follow when considering such appeals.

Administrative Review
The Board can hear and decide appeals where it is alleged the Zoning Administrator erred in an order, requirement, decision or determination.

The Board has all the powers of the Zoning Administrator in such cases and may direct the issuance of a permit.
Variances

Because of these conditions, the application of the ordinance to a particular piece of property would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the utilization of the property. - Detriment
