How is zoning ordinance established in Iowa counties
A county board of supervisors appoints a zoning commission to survey land use, roads, schools and population for a comprehensive plan. The commission drafts preliminary zoning districts and regulations, holds a public hearing, and submits a final report to the board, which may adopt the plan and appoint an administrator and board of adjustment to enforce and fine tune the ordinance. The board of adjustment handles hardship waivers and appeals, while changes go to the commission or board depending on the request.
