6/01/2026 Zionsville Board of Zoning Appeals

The Town of Zionsville Board of Zoning Appeals held a meeting on June 1, 2026, primarily focused on zoning variances, special exceptions, and development standards related to residential properties. Key procurement-related discussions included multiple variance requests for setbacks, use of private wells, and road frontage requirements for single-family homes in agricultural and residential zoning districts. The board approved a special exception for a single-family dwelling in an agricultural district and several setback variances for a property at 7885 Royal Avenue B, with conditions including recording a private driveway easement. A variance request to increase lot coverage for a deck at 190 North Maple Street was denied. Another significant topic was a use variance request to expand a legally non-conforming residential structure in the village, which was continued to a future meeting for further review. The board also discussed upcoming zoning ordinance text amendments related to development standard variances, with plans for further review by a Planning Commission subcommittee and potential legal training. Motions were taken on all procurement-related items, with several approvals and one denial recorded.
