Description

This CLE will detail the application process and the required legal findings to file an application at the NYC Board of Standards and Appeals seeking a zoning variance. The variance is designed to alleviate a zoning hardship that prevents the property from being developed with a viable use.

NYC Zoning regulations were first established in 1961 and in some cases, certain tax lots were over regulated and in need of relief. The BSA was established as a safety value to provide such relief. A BSA application is targeted to a single tax lot, not multiple lots.
