The Office of Administrative Hearings coordinates and schedules public hearings for County Commissioner appointed Boards and Commissions. The Board of Zoning Appeals, the Board of License Commissioners (Liquor Board), Ethics Commission and the Historic Preservation Commission are provided staff support to assist the members in performing all functions of their appointed duties.

The Office also maintains history maps and official decisions from zoning hearings dating back to 1961. Older case hearing files are kept in a remote location and available for public review upon request.
