Re: 179 - Good post.

I'd recommend the book written by Carry Okie. It's must reading after the decision of the USSC.

What concerns me is that depending on the state, many of the agencies that would make decisions on zoning and planning are appointed positions. You can't vote out these folks.

I've always maintained the most powerful people in a town, village, etc are the folks on the planning/zoning boards.

Carry Okie?

That's a joke, right?

Thanks for the plug. This ruling is an outrage, no matter what the justification. The court is obviously ignorant on how holding private property rights inviolate works to eliminate the need for "planning," much less government control of what constitutes "the public good."
