Zoning Variance Denial Upheld Against Unnecessary Hardship and Taking Claims
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe appellant was denied a variance to construct a structure that encroached upon a setback requirement, which the court found was properly denied because the appellant failed to demonstrate an unnecessary hardship unique to the property warranting an exception to the zoning ordinance. The court reasoned that the governing body's denial was not arbitrary or capricious, as the hardship claimed stemmed from the property's shape, which was not unique, and the appellant failed to show that the property could not yield a reasonable return without the variance, thereby upholding the local legislative decision against a claim of unconstitutional taking.
