Reid Development Corporation, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills, a Municipal Corporation, Et…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the lower court and remanded the case, holding that the township's refusal to extend water mains conditioned on a zoning requirement was an arbitrary abuse of discretion violating equal protection. The court declared the ordinance granting unfettered discretion ultra vires and ordered mandamus to compel the extension.
