No. 06-2767

WILLIAM RUPPRECHT,

Plaintiff, Appellant,

v.

CITY OF PITTSFIELD, ET AL.,

Defendants, Appellees.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS

[Hon. Kenneth P. Neiman, U.S. Magistrate Judge]

Before

Boudin, Chief Judge, Campbell, Senior Circuit Judge, and Lynch, Circuit Judge.

William Rupprecht on brief pro se. Nancy Frankel Pelletier and Robinson Donovan, P.C. on brief for appellees.

May 31, 2007 Per Curiam. After carefully considering the briefs and

record on appeal, we affirm the judgment below. McCord v. Horace

Mann Ins. Co.,

(1st Cir. 2004)(de novo review).

Among other problems, land-use conflicts rarely support

constitutional claims. Extreme circumstances are required to

support substantive due process or equal protection claims.

Exhaustion of state remedies is a prerequisite for procedural due

process and Fifth Amendment takings claims. SFW Arecibo, LTD v.

Rodriguez,

(1st Cir. 2005). Appellant made no showing

that he satisfied any of these requirements.

Affirmed. See 1st Cir. R. 27.0(c).
