Strauss Troy Associate Attorney Andrew White Wins Zoning Appeal, Upholding Private Property Rights

A win for private property owners. Strauss Troy associate attorney Andrew White secured a favorable ruling from the Butler County Common Pleas Court in a zoning appeal involving the City of Trenton, OH.

The court reversed a decision of the city's Board of Zoning Appeals, finding that the board improperly interpreted a provision of the local zoning code when denying a permit for a prospective local business, and remanded the matter for further consideration.

This decision was important in upholding the presumption in law that favors the free use of private property.
