The proposed action would examine whether the Board of Commissioners followed legally required public-notice and hearing procedures before approving a school and daycare development in the Agricultural Reserve on September 28, 2023 (application SV/CA-2022-01490; Resolutions R-2023-1419 and R-2023-1420).
Investigators are reviewing where zoning signs were posted, how many notices were mailed and to whom, how the 500-foot notification radius was applied, and whether newspaper and hearing notices were timely and complete. These are questions to investigate, not established judicial findings.
The proposed claims concern governmental notice, transparency, and public participation, not religious beliefs or anyone's right to worship. The same notice rules should apply to every land-use applicant.
