Abstract

This note examines four aspects of rezoning decisions addressed by the Parkridge court: the policy basis upon which rezoning actions may legitimately be grounded; the quantum of evidence necessary to support a rezoning decision;" the allocation of the burden of proof in rezoning actions; and the presumption of validity, if any, accorded local rezoning decisions.
