The original developer objected to one or more conditions placed on the CUP by the Board of Aldermen and appealed those impositions to Superior Court, which ruled in favor of the Board of Aldermen. The developer appealed this decision to the Court of Appeals which determined that the Board of Aldermen had failed to include adequate findings of fact in its order approving the permit with the conditions in question and remanded that case back to the Superior Court with the instructions to the Superior Court to remand the case to the Board of Aldermen to make findings of fact to support its decision to impose the conditions. Afterwards, the permit remained inactive but still valid until at least November 21, 2013, as described in the Abstract for this agenda item.
The Board of Aldermen extended the permit for an additional year at their February 18th, 2014 meeting with an expiration date of November 21st, 2014.
