The Zoning Officer is charged with the duty of enforcing the zoning ordinance.

All meetings of the Zoning Board of Adjustment are open to the public, except such executive sessions authorized pursuant to state law. The regular meetings of the Board of Adjustment are held on the third Tuesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the Court room in Borough Hall.
