Borough of Green Tree

Zoning Hearing Board

The Zoning Hearing Board convenes to hear appeals from the decision of the Code Official, requests for variance from the terms of the zoning and grading codes, and requests for use by special exception as established by the zoning code.  The Board also hears challenges to the validity of any provision of the zoning or land use requirements and appoints its own Solicitor (not Municipal Solicitor). 

The Board consists of five members who are residents of the Borough and who shall be appointed by Council that serve three-year terms.  Each term shall be based on the staggered pattern of membership which is already in place.
