Borough of Lindenwold

AS YOU PREPARE FOR YOUR APPEARANCE BEFORE THE BOARD THESE FEW NOTES MAY

HELP:

1. Don’t be nervous, remember that the board is made up of people like you who reside in Lindenwold and

have an interest in making Lindenwold a better place to live.

2. You will be sworn to tell the truth in this matter. The Board may ask you questions concerning your

property. These questions are used to clarify some ideas and not to pry.

3. You are asking the board to change or bend the Zoning Regulations to accommodate your special needs.

To do this, you need to be aware of the concepts of burned of proof and hardship.

4. BURDEN OF PROOF:

Remember that the burden of proof for a variance rests with the applicant. The Board can not prove

your case for you; you have to tell us why we should grant the variance. You do this through the

application you filed, your sworn oral testimony, and any exhibits you may want to submit.

5. HARDSHIP:

In most cases you need to establish a hardship. A hardship can be created by reason of exceptional

narrowness, shallowness, shape, special condition, physical feature or other extraordinary and

exceptional situation uniquely affecting a specific piece of property or the structures on it. In addition to

establishing this hardship, the applicant has to establish that the proposed relief can be granted without

substantial detriment to the public good or the Zone Plan of the Borough of Lindenwold.

6. You have the right to be represented by an attorney if you so desire, but you are not obligated to have an

attorney.
