Louisville Historical League, Inc. v. louisville/jefferson County Metro Government

Summary

The Court held that failure to plead particularized injury or aggrievement under the local appeal ordinance concerns particular-case jurisdiction, not subject-matter jurisdiction, and that the objection was waived because it was first raised on appeal. It further held that Kentucky courts possess constitutional authority to review administrative decisions for arbitrariness, and concluded that the Metro Council's decision to reject Liberty Hall's landmark designation was not arbitrary or procedurally unconstitutional. The Court therefore reversed the lower-court rulings and affirmed the Council's decision.
