What does the zoning board do?

  1. Buys property for governmental use

  2. Hears applicants for relief from zoning ordinances

  3. Assigns police officers to neighborhoods

  4. Constructs public buildings

The correct answer is: Hears applicants for relief from zoning ordinances

The zoning board is responsible for overseeing and enforcing zoning ordinances, which determine how land and buildings can be used in a certain area. Option A is incorrect because the zoning board does not purchase property for the government. Option C is incorrect because assigning police officers to neighborhoods falls under the jurisdiction of the police department. Option D is incorrect because constructing public buildings is typically the responsibility of a separate department or agency.
