Appeal of LWRSE

From the press release.

On December 20, 2023, the Administrative Law Judge submitted a Recommended Order to the Florida Department of Commerce which will issue the final ruling in the case. “The ALJ’s recommendation that the Department find the land use change in compliance with the law is based on several surprising legal errors, completely overlooking or misreading clear legal, mandatory standards governing comprehensive plan changes”, said Richard Grosso, legal counsel for Hutchinson and Fitzgerald. ”We will file formal exceptions to the Order to the Department of Commerce, which, based on clear legal violations, we expect to reject the ALJ’s flawed recommendation”, said Shai Ozery, co-counsel for Hutchinson and Fitzgerald.

 

The judge’s ruling was a disappointment but we will appeal it. When we initiated the appeal of the County’s change to the Comp Plan for Lakewood Ranch we knew it would be a long process. We have a long way yet to go and we will continue the fight.
