VILLAGE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS

Welcome to the Zoning Board of Appeals for the Village of Lake George!

The Zoning Board of Appeals is responsible for reviewing all variance applications as well as all interpretation or determination appeals and all other matters outlined in the Village Code. The role of this Board is to ensure that land use and development within the village align with zoning regulations while considering unique circumstances that may warrant exceptions. Meetings are held to address community needs and maintain the balance between growth and preserving the character of our Village! We encourage you to explore this page to learn more about our Zoning Board of Appeals and their meeting schedules. Your engagement helps shape the future of Lake George!

Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month at 5:00 PM in the Village Administration Building Meeting Room. Applications must be completed and submitted at least four weeks prior to the meeting date for consideration.
