(A) The purpose of this section is to assist the city in the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan, zoning, and subdivision regulations. The City Council, Planning Commission, Zoning Administrator (or City Clerk), and the Zoning Board of Adjustment are responsible for the enforcement of the plan and its implementation, through utilization of the zoning and subdivision regulations.
(B) The procedures provided in this section are to be used as a tool or means of assisting the community and local officials and commission members. It should be noted, however, the procedures and processes described in this section are models and are subject to change due to modifications, alterations, and additional requirements through legislative action and/or judicial rulings by Courts of Law, it is therefore necessary to monitor potential legislative actions and judicial rulings. Several resources are available to assist the community in the task, including the City Attorney, City Clerk, League of Nebraska Municipalities, Nebraska Planning and Zoning Association, American Planning Association - Nebraska Chapter, Nebraska Department of Economic Development - Community Affairs Division, and local state senator(s). All of the resources should be utilized, particularly to maintain up-to-date and enforceable zoning and subdivision regulations.
