When Should Entrepreneurs Consider Applying for a Zoning Variance?
Entrepreneurs should consider applying for a zoning variance when the intended use of the property is not allowed under existing zoning regulations. This could be for a variety of reasons, such as wanting to open a retail store in a residential area, establishing a manufacturing unit in a commercial zone, or converting a residential home into a home office for a growing business. Identifying these needs early in the business planning process is crucial.
