Board of Adjustment
The Board of Adjustment is created pursuant to Columbia Falls Municipal Code Chapter 18.207 and state statute, 76-2-321 to 76-2-324, MCA. The board currently consists of 6 members each serving a 3 year term appointed by the City Council. Board of Adjustment members serve without compensation. The board reviews applications for a variance from Title 18 Zoning regulations wherein certain circumstances may exist or arise creating an unnecessary hardship through strict adherence to the applicable regulations. However, the board may not make changes in uses categorically permitted in any zoning classification or zoning district or amend the zoning text or map.
The specific regulations regarding variances can be found under Chapter 18.207 Board of Adjustment, Chapter 18.208 Appeals and Chapter 18.209 Variances. Questions may be directed to Susan Nicosia, City Manager/Planning & Zoning Administrator
