ESCAMBIA COUNTY BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
Established by the Board of County Commissioners through adoption of Escambia County Ordinance No. 88-16, enacted on December 1, 1988. Ordinance 2004-9 amended the Escambia County Code of Ordinances to change the membership from five to seven members, all of whom must reside within Escambia County. Ordinance 2004-9 specifies the BCC endows the BOA with the power to conduct any required quasi-judicial public hearings to grant, grant with conditions or deny applications for variances, conditional uses, requests for final extension of development orders for site plan approval, requests for the temporary use of a mobile home as a guest residence due to medical hardship and appeals of administrative decisions filed by those persons aggrieved by interpretations or administration of these regulations. Ordinance 2001-35 provides a right of appeal to the Board of County Commissioners for review of the orders of the BOA affirming, reversing or modifying the decision of an administrative official.
