# Tuscaloosa Zoning Board of Adjustment Meeting - Sep 28, 2026


**Body:** City of Tuscaloosa (TuscaloosaCity)
**Date:** September 29, 2026
**Jurisdiction:** SLED

The City of Tuscaloosa Zoning Board of Adjustment met on September 28, 2026. No procurement, contracts, or spending decisions were identified. The board withdrew ZBA 81-26 at the applicant’s request, approved a variance for a daycare at 3093 Palisades Court to serve more than 30 children, and denied variances concerning repairs to a nonconforming home and a detached accessory structure located in front of its principal residence.

Most of the meeting concerned special exceptions for short-term rentals. The board approved several applications, generally with limits on occupancy and vehicles and a one-year probationary period; one application for 1708 12th Avenue was denied after neighbors raised concerns about parking and disturbances, and board members questioned the applicant’s prior unlicensed rentals. The discussion emphasized compliance with short-term-rental conditions and reporting problems through 311, which may inform future renewal decisions.
