Confirming Legal Use

Current zoning may not always reflect the legal use of a particular property. The property may have non-conforming rights for a particular use (grandfathered). Also, in some cases, a previous variance or previous Special Land Use approval may be in effect. Determine the legal use of a particular property by submitting a property use verification form.
