Society Created to Reduce Urban Blight v. Zoning Board of Adjustment

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 14th day of July, 2008, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, rephrased for clarity, is:

Did the Commonwealth Court err in denying standing to Petitioners in this Philadelphia Zoning Appeal by holding that 53 P.S. § 13131.1 eliminated taxpayer standing in Philadelphia zoning appeals and preempted Philadelphia Zoning Ordinance 14-1807, which allowed taxpayer standing?
