How property requests are decided

Requests about a particular property, such as permits, exceptions and variances, are decided by a county board after an advertised public hearing. Which board depends on the kind of request.

The law: Va. Code § 15.2-2204 (Advertising public hearings). This describes the general process, not this decision.
