New York Court of Appeals
In the Matter of the Town of Bedford v. Village of Mount Kisco, Dominic A. Amuso, Intervenors-Appellants
November 21, 197333 N.Y.2d 178
Summary
The Court held that the Town of Bedford has statutory standing under Westchester County Administrative Code §452 to challenge the Village of Mount Kisco's rezoning and that the rezoning was not arbitrary or capricious, affirming the village's authority to adapt its comprehensive plan without a formal amendment. The decision reverses the Appellate Division's affirmation of the lower court and dismisses Bedford's petition; a dissent argued the opposite.
