Ceslow v. Board of County Commissioners
Ceslow v. Board of County Commissioners
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
In my opinion the petitioner has made an unrebutted showing of her entitlement to a special exception under the provisions of the county’s zoning code. There is simply no evidence to justify the county’s denial of her request or the trial court’s approval of that denial. Cf. Rural New Town, Inc. v. Palm Beach County, 315 So.2d 478 (Fla. 4th DCA 1975). Citizens should be entitled to know that objective standards exist for determining their entitlement to special exceptions and that their entitlement will be upheld when they meet those objective standards. Here the standards exist and were met by the petitioner but her request was nevertheless denied, the trial court concluding that it was not prepared to say
Opinion of the Court
The petition for writ of certiorari is hereby denied.
