In most communities I have worked in a variance hearing with no promise of an approval = $250.00 or more.That alone stops most variance hearings. And zoning is such a cold fish that they don't care whether you are a not for profit or a public service. You pay the money to file the paper.

I read the story Ted and I agree it is just the beginning. My point was it was already on the federal radar with the first hit going to the developer in this case.

I'm sure more will happen in this field.
