Supreme Court of New Jersey

Lena Schmidt and Elsie S. Fischer, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. Board of Adjustment of the City of Newark, New Jersey…

May 5, 19529 N.J. 405

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Superior Court's judgment that Newark's zoning ordinance is a valid exercise of police power and that the delegation of recommendatory authority to the Board of Adjustment is permissible, but remanded the case because the board failed to make the statutory findings required by the ordinance.
