Suppose the local board approves a rezoning? Am I out of luck?
If the zoning amendment is adopted, you have the right to appeal to the courts. Typical grounds for appeal are that the adoption of the new ordinance was not done in a legal manner, there were procedural errors, or it was arbitrary and unreasonable. Again, if an attorney was involved in the process from your side, she would have helped create a record that makes it easier to show the change was improper.
