The Zoning Hearing Board is made up of members who hear, upon appeal, applicants who desire variances, challenges, non-conforming requests or special exceptions made to the Zoning Ordinance. They also hear appeals of decisions made by the Zoning Officer. In rendering a decision, the Board considers testimony, as well as the impact on the community. Decisions made by the Board may be appealed to the Court of Common Pleas of Chester County.
