Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
Upstream Watch v. City of Belfast
August 3, 2023299 A.3d 25
Summary
The court held that the Zoning Board of Appeals erred by limiting its standing review to Upstream Watch's appeal form rather than considering the entire underlying administrative record. It further held that the record established, as a matter of law, that Upstream had standing because at least one member was an aggrieved person under the governing ordinance. The court vacated the judgment and remanded for consideration of Upstream's appeal on the merits.
