Land-Use Decisions Face New Legal Scrutiny with Proposed Judicial Reforms
The working paper discusses how to review land-use decisions in court. It looks at different aspects like when and how to review, who can challenge decisions, what can be reviewed, and what actions can be taken. The paper suggests that states can choose to have more or less active judicial review systems. It offers ideas for laws that can support both types of review systems. These ideas are based on the American Law Institute's Model Land Development Code.
