Supreme Court of Rhode Island
David M. Campbell v. Tiverton Zoning Board
March 25, 20112011 R.I. LEXIS 38
Summary
The Rhode Island Supreme Court held that the appeal challenging the declaration that the Tiverton Yacht Club’s clubhouse expansion constituted an unlawful expansion of a non‑conforming use was moot after the town amended its zoning ordinance, vacated that portion of the lower‑court judgment, vacated the lower‑court order prohibiting the club’s marina because the marina is on a separate lot, and affirmed the lower‑court denial of the Campbells’ attorney‑fees request under the Equal Access to Justice Act.
