BUILDING/ZONING AND PLANING DEPARTMENT

Board of Planning and Adjustment

The Board of Planning and Adjustment consists of nine (9) members. The Board is created to promote the public health, safety, morals, general welfare, the orderly growth and development of the Town of Forest City and the Extra Territorial Jurisdiction. The board of adjustment hears individual quasi-judicial cases, such as appeals, requests for special or conditional use permits, and variance petitions. The zoning regulations and districts have been made with reasonable consideration, among other things to the characteristics of each Zoning District and its peculiar suitability for particular uses, and with a view to conserving the value of buildings and encouraging the most appropriate use of land throughout the Town.

The Board of Planning and Adjustment meets the 3rd Thursday of each month at 6:00pm in the town hall council chambers located at 128 N. Powell Street in downtown Forest City, North Carolina.
