Supreme Court of Georgia

Edwards v. City of Warner Robins

October 30, 2017

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed the superior court’s grant of summary judgment to the City of Warner Robins, rejecting the Edwardses’ constitutional challenges to the Base Environs Overlay District ordinance. The Court held that the ordinance was not unconstitutionally enacted, was not vague as applied, did not violate vested rights, and did not constitute a compensable taking. The 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claim was also dismissed.
