What this form is
The Zoning District Variance Request Application is filed to ask the City for relief from a specific zoning regulation — setbacks, height, lot coverage, and similar dimensional standards — for a described property. The application requires proof of ownership and a notarized owner authorization (Letter of Intent) when the applicant is not the owner. The notarized authorization is what lets Florida City process the request on the owner's behalf.
Who needs it
Florida City property owners (or their authorized representatives) seeking a variance from a zoning requirement for a development or improvement.
Why it needs a notary
Florida City requires a notarized owner authorization / Letter of Intent accompanying the variance application before it is accepted.
