Supreme Court of Connecticut
Tillman v. Planning & Zoning Commission
October 20, 2021341 Conn. 117
Summary
The court affirmed the dismissal of the plaintiffs’ appeal from approval of a planned development district on approximately 121 acres in Shelton. It held that the general zoning authority in § 8-2 permits municipalities to create planned development districts, that the district complied with § 8-2’s uniformity requirement, and that the approval did not constitute an unlawful subdivision. The court also concluded that the particular development was not impermissible spot zoning because of its size, consistency with the comprehensive plan, and longstanding industrial zoning.
