Critical training available for Zoning Board of Appeals members

Acting properly, a community's Zoning Board of Appeals protects the interests of all parties and upholds due process, but when poorly trained, the board can be a serious legal risk to the community. The zoning board of appeals (ZBA) is the local government body with the responsibility and authority to hear appeals that arise in the administration of the local zoning ordinance.
