Summary

Board members directed staff to correct the variance application form language so the applicant is the property owner or an individual under contract to purchase, aligning the form with ordinance requirements.

Board members identified an inconsistency in the variance application form that listed an assisting person as the applicant. A member observed that under the village ordinance only a property owner or someone under contract to become an owner may apply for a variance; helpers or agents may assist but cannot be named as the applicant on the form.

The board agreed staff should update the form language to conform to ordinance 225‑8‑7F. One board member noted prior work by Mark Roers on application materials and zoning code recodification; staff indicated they would coordinate those updates.
