Members

The Lake County Board of Adjustment consists of the five (5) members of the Lake County Board of County Commissioners. The term of each member of the Board of Adjustment coincides with the respective County Commissioner terms. County zoning officials may be appointed as ex-officio members of the Planning Commission.

Meetings

Meetings are held at the call of the chairperson and at such other times as the Board of Adjustment may determine. Typically, the Board of Adjustment meetings are held in the Commission Room on regular County Commission meeting days, which take place on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month. All meetings of the Board of Adjustment are open to the public and conducted in accordance with the rules established by the Board of Adjustment.
